Restore it, Dont part it!
Nice progress. I'm following
So steve what are you going to have to weigh to get junior out of the seat??? LOL
Darned critters! Great work. This is fun to watch come together.Mike. I decided to keep total weight down to a minimum when I drive so I will be naked. This way I can lube up and squeeze through. I was thinking you could come along and help push me through the bars. LOL . Remember without my wallet in my pants pocket she'll weigh in light .
Well we couldn't get it low enough so the rails need to be moved up for new shock and anti roll bar. He cut out the boxes he put in. Look what steve found living in the frame rail.

I believe the expensive parts are done for now . Its all the little tabs and fasteners now. Execpt for the Sanders bead locks and front wheels. $3,000 + I may have to start selling some things. The wife is getting suspicious.
I look at these pictures and I still can't believe no one wanted to save this car. This body has been here since 1993 and I offered it several times on this site. The body was perfect . That is all factory sheet metal. New quarters and floors would have cost more then the $1500 asking price. Its a shame cutting it up but I told my son he can do what he wants with it . He sold the Valiant for $700 and I gave him this body. I my days 140 mph 1/4 pass was super fast. Now these young guys need to go 200 in and 1/8 . Where does it end?

Amen to that, Brother!I'd love to have that car except........
I have 5 cars...
I have no more room...
Too late in life for me...
You guys are doing way better work than I could...
Please don't put some ugly hood scoop on it.
I like the look of old Super Stock cars
