that car is awsome, you ought to build a twin turbo setup for it and have some more fun

I keep telling my dad that aboout his '66 mustang but he's insistant that he keeps a 289 and he wan'ts a t-5 swap




lets keep the pics coming as the car progresses

 

Pretty good. I had one of these. Still have vivid dreams that I still own it.

That was 25 years ago.

 

thanks, yea American Racing TT2's but 17's.

And 'Mater thats a Beautiful RS Z28 man. Thats my Dream Car. I've been thinking about putting an RS Conversion back on mine while I have the front end off of it but I'm just not sure. They make a kit for $1,400. Then itd appear to be an RS/SS which would not match the Trim Tag. Thats the problem with #'s matching cars, you get gun shy about doing what you want to do.

 

Hurry up and order your pizza from Pappa Johns. lol nice car, sold my 67 rs 327 a few years ago. It needed a lot of work.

 

heres my baby-350,350, basic resto mod, still some interior work to be done(recovering passenger and rear seat)

Thats a gorgeous car you have there. Did you just repait that 350 or do any work to it?

 

Very nice car !! The year after I got out of high school I was shopping cars and got down to 2, 69' Camaro with 350 and 70' Mach I w/ 351C. I choose the Mustang but both were very nice, was a tough decision.

 

Those are the wheels any classic Chevy should be running. I love the way they look and ran a set on my 70 Nova SS 396/375 4 speed when I had it.

 

Heres a before and after of the dash area...




The Autometer gauges were melted down in the floor. I had hoped the previous owner had kept the original carrier and gauges but he didnt. I picked this up from a local guy for $100... an awesome deal for carrier, gauges, lenses, wiper switch and all. just needs cleaning up. oh, and $50 for the A/C controls... which was also a great deal (yes A/C control not just heat)

 

Very nice Scooch! I know you're proud of it!

 

Thanks Pam, I am when I'm not frustrated and pullin my hair out!

 

I agree, Ive seen some good looking cars with big modern wheels but nothing says classic style like those wheels. They're the 15" corvete version instead of the 14" camaro version

 

I agree, But the car already had those Torque Thrust rims on it when I got it and the tires are brand new so they'll be on there for a while. Unless I find some guy that wants to make a trade.

 

All your before and afters are scaring me, it looks all pretty in the before, then you had to go and torch it to take your after pics



JK it looks good!

 

Finally got it put back together and driving her. what a blast.

 

Came out great....good job!
