Counterfeit Cars on FABO!!!

I would rather spend my money on a re-bodied car, done right, than spending my money on a car that has most sheetmetal parts from AMD, Year One, Whamco, Ronco, 42 assorted parts cars from here to Guatamalla, and was welded together by Joe's Bar, Grille, and Restorations. I guess I'm just dumb.

my car started life as a 70 swinger with a 225 and factory AC, When we got it ( many years ago) the motor had already been swapped out for a 1966 225. in the last few years it has had the complete underneath from front to back swapped in from a 74 swinger and all the complete sheet metal from the doors back replaced. it had a 1969 318 and now has a 1985 360 and this winter i will be stripping and replacing all the sheet metal from the doors forward. the seats are from a mid 80s VW (jetta it think).


So my car is a perfect example of a mix and match hodge podge of parts that is a mere shell of its former self but the most important thing is that it was the car that my dad and i worked on together. It is still a 1970 swinger with the original frame vin and fender tag And thats the way it will always be as long as i own it (which i hope is as long as i am alive)
