Middle of the Year - where are YOU at ??
I built a 64 Savoy back in the mid 90s, 440 stuffed into that slant body, the 3 on tree went the way of a 4 speed. Friend put me onto this one will be 2 years this Sept. My current project is same animal but it will get a 383 another friend has that was out of his 67 Coronet.
I finished the body/paint last summer. NO rust but it ain't perfect. Good enough fr me to drive. At 74, mostly woreout, cataracs, bad knees..... but IF I keep it, it will be a driver for me. I have offered it for sale for months, but not that many Mopar guys in Tx. Or people want a $10,000 paint job and want it for FREE. So I continue on with it. I really would like to finish it and make it my last ride.
A guy on a B body site, said "another darn SS clone!". Well not really. It now has A100 new seats, NO back seat ( I don't need a back seat), SS? NO just a decent 383 and a 4 speed. I have fabbed a MW scoop out of 20 ga mild steel that is exactly like the oem aluminum job. Would have made mine out of aluminum but too many $$$$$! I'm not a racer, not a show guy... just an old fart that likes to drive some.
It will fab SS door panels next. Still need to swap out 8 3/4 rear. Ever seen an old man and his old wife try to do such? Change K and update some front suspension. I have new brake/fuel lines, and brake parts.
Need AMD windshield in and ACC carpet. NOTE! Windshield and carpet is IN!!!!! lol
Keeps me out of the bars and pool rooms. But... not much of a drinker and I suck at pool...sooooooo
