CAR FOR SALE !!!

CAR FOR SALE !!!

Not!!! But got your attention... Wifey was probably excited by that idea, but just not going to happen...

Haven't been able to drive it much lately, due to way too much dust on our dirt roads, but that's ok.

Time to order parts again... Well at least if is better than many other vises one could have, so look at it from the bright side.

It's an investment! (Well known response from all muscle car guys to wives and family as they grow impatient with our infatuation with these fine pieces of equipment.)

Well enough for today, time to use the VISA!!!

Stuck in the Garage

This is where she spends most of her time. Unfortunately... but that is the life for her now. We will be making some changes soon. We are going to pull out that old points type distributor and give her a new HEI system with a very hot coil and a digital timing system. Then we are going to look into maybe reducing down to one carb and maybe a tranny upgrade as well. Oh, but there will be a lot of chrome under the hood, a lot in-deed! Then when she is ready to run with the wind, we might have to upgrade the brakes to a 4 wheel vented disc system, so we can actually slow her down. It's going to be a hot summer with no AC but that is a little ways down the road right now...

We will also be looking into a fresh restoration in the future as well. Hmmm, maybe a different paint scheme, maybe not... Will have to look into some new paint concepts before making that decision. Any suggestions?
