Am I the only one?
A lot of nice touches there. The Keystones, fuzzy dice, ducktail spoiler, etc... I know that your car isn't what most would call show car ready (no offense) But it does embody the spirit of old school. I confess that nowadays even I cringe at aftermarket sunroofs but I'd put a few in cars back in the day. I'm looking forward to seeing you stuff that big 'ol Hemi in there. It's obvious you've been building it to enjoy it. You're probably the type of guy that I love shooting the breeze with at car shows.
My '74 was (and will be again when I finish putting it back together) was an Old School style ride too. It ran a Manual Shift 727 (Forward Pattern) with a 1970 (One Year Only) Challenger Slapstik Shifter mounted inside a 1967 Barracuda Center Console. I also added a '67 Cuda Rallye Cluster. B-Body 8.75" with Super Stock Springs, 489 Chunk with 3.23 Sure Grip. Direct Connection Ductail Spoiler, "Pop Out" Style Glass Sunroof, A/C, Power Steering, Cruise Control. Yes, there's even Fuzzy Dice hanging from the Mirror, a 10 Band EQ on top of the Center Console and an 8-Track Radio in the Dash (the only thing out of place/not period correct was the Accel 300+ Ignition Box and the CD Changer). When it finally goes back together, it will have an 8-71 Blown 392 Hemi (1st Gen, not 3rd Gen) and an 18 Spline A833 with a Dana 60 Rear. Keeping the Interior I have, keeping the Keystone Klassic Wheels. About the only changes to the build, will be the Hemi (instead of the 340), the 4-Speed, and the Dana 60. Oh and the 71 Front Clip & Tail Panel.
