getting my 65 formula s back on road
:happy10:After two years waiting my 65 cuda formula s will be back on road like new again! Sent car to vocational class in New Jersey (I am in Maryland) two years ago to be restored by class. They have done all the work except paint. List includes new front k frame and suspension (bent in accident), new front disc brakes, new fuels lines and brake lines. Car was on a rotisserie and all bottom rust was repaired, new door, new front fenders, new fuel tank. SUb frame connectors. Motor was replaced (old 273 4bbl) with newly rebuit 318 4bbl, used my valve covers looks like 273, used my newly rebuit trans (built for bracket racing good to 500hp). Replaced rear end with 81/4 inch rear, nothing special but bigger than original. Powder coated ralley wheels new rubber. Now ready for daily driving. Interior refurbished, new radio, wiring repaired, everything now working. I will pick it up end of may or early June. Hope to drive it to Carlisle! Then hope to get painted this fall, probably dark blue, was orininally black , but now blue. I used to have a 66 cuda many years ago bracket raced in Md then in Wisconsen when I lived in Chicago area. I am back Jack
