Hello to all. I have poked around the site for a little while now and decided to post up a project I have finally started back on. Thought you guys might also help me verify I have decoded this thing right.
To start with I have had this car for 16 years. It was given to me when I was 14 by family in Albuquerque New Mexico. My folks and I drove out there just after my 15 birthday and drug it back to TN. When I receivde it the car had a 455 olds in it (original engine had swallowed a valve and was gone). I started collecting parts (and parts cars) at that time and started tearing this one down. By the time I had the front end off, suspension cleaned, and front frame clean I had collected a pretty good selection of parts (YZ block 16 heads and intake, the car was not originally a H.O., but I had planned on putting it back together as one) Great set of front fenders, complete hideaway set up, interior parts ect... It was as this point my dad pointed out that just a few more bolts and I could set the body off and do this thing right. I decided that is what I would do, but that also took the wind out of sails. Being a Junior in High school my interests started in another direction and the car has set (moved locations twice) since then. Fast forward 16 years and I now have the desire to finish the car again. I have decided this is not the main priority in my life, but will work on it as time and money allows (anything is better than nothing) As you can see I have some fine helpers now too. VIN 242378R206672 Body Tag 07C126 ST 68-24237 BT13414 TR 22D KK |
