Here are some pictures of the undercarriage showing some of the extreme detail that went into this car. Again........everything under here was restored back to the way it was found. We documented everything as we carefully disassembled this car.

Of course......the stainless steel Pypes exhaust isn't original....but it sure does sound good.

Nice, I think I could use the underbody as a mirror to shave with.

[The Boss]

The tires are dirty.

Just kidding - beautiful work!

[Greg Reid]

Jason, has the previous owner (the barn owner that is) had a chance to look at it yet?

To further what Greg said, it would be nice to get a before and after pic from the barn's 'driveway' as posted earlier.

I'll say this, after all of the hard work_money_parts etc. I'm not sure I could sell this car...these cars are just to hard find this complete.

Jason, fantastic job and good luck with the car.

....Or drive it ..I'd be too scared to scratch anything underneath now...

This car rivals or betters a Tiemann restoration and is a true work of art.

Jason,

I have not posted on this thread before but I wanted take a moment to THANK YOU for taking the time and making the effort to post all the pictures of your work these last several months. The detail photos of the component parts are excellent and will undoubtedly help many others with their restorations.

I think the car is turning out beautifully and hope you finish it with no problems and have a successful sale at auction.

John

[RUFFJUDGE]

Very well said John! I agree 100% and would also like to say thanks. It is an awesome car and has been a pleasure seeing you rebuild it with such detail.

Oshawa, Canada Judge-----It's a Beauty eh?

We tip a "2-4" to it!!! Nice work

Maybe a Canuck will buy it, but hopefully not skin a deer on it, like that other thread.

[70 PEPPER GREEN]

the car is bueatyful, i have spent hours taking notes and correcting my frame off 70 gto, thanks for the invaluable infro. Hope when you sell it you get all the money you deserve it!!

[JasonD]

Thanks for all the nice comments, guys. It's been alot of fun sharing his car's restoration with a bunch of people who appreciate what it is.

[JasonD]

Here is the engine compartment featuring the original Ram Air III engine with all it's original parts:







Here are some pictures of up inside the front fenders showing how nice and new everything is. Even the brake calipers are the original date coded Delco units that I restored.





And here is the interior. All original except for the new carpet and pedal pads. The seats, door panels, dash, and everything else is completely original and unrestored.

Good luck with the auction Jason! This will be a good one to watch.
Great job on the restoration!

[Keith Seymore]

Jason - even the auction is nicely written; I enjoyed reading it even though I already knew the story...

...except for the part about the class ring: I didn't realize it belonged to the original owner. Cool!

Perhaps you should post a couple "before" pictures, or maybe a link to this thread, in case any potential buyers would be interested.

[The Boss]

You need to add this picture to the auction!

Best of luck to you Jason!

[keith k]

Sounds like me and the Judge were both living in State College, PA in 1970 then.

Great story, nicely written auction, and great resto. I'm sure it will bring top dollar, and deserves to.

[Brewster]

Good read and thanks for sharing with us all to enjoy!

Please make note that the ring was returned to the original owner along with the point the car has not been driven? Trailer Queens or virgin restorations bring in more money for obvious reasons.

Good luck with the sale and your future business venture.
I feel your business will benefit from more then just the proceeds generated in the sale of the car.
Brewster

[JasonD]

Thanks for all the kind words, everybody.

The auction is doing fine so far and hopefully whomever wins the car will be able to take it all over the country and show it to everybody since I don't have the time to.
