So I bought Christine... ohhhh scary...
So I bought Christine... ohhhh scary...
real 3s'ers have NoCar transfer cases...
floorpans are cut out, trunk is in tact, I have new fenders incoming. The tires throw water and dirt up in that area... an they rot quickly. Just bad engineering and wheel housings that aren't tight.
Drivers quarter needs replacing, new bumpers... new windshield... a boat load of work but these are getting rarer and rarer... Australia and EU are grabbing them like crazy... projects are pretty much gone....
eh I have all the chrome and its pretty good, just the bumpers(have both of those for 600$)
and only thing left to chrome is lettering on side and back and the fender mirrors) 90% of the trim is perfect and a lot is stainless.
Are you doing a stock restore or will it have modern wheels, brakes, stereo etc.?
eh... I actually am thinking, custom everything... pro tour, big brakes, big rims, full cage and other safety(these cars are death on wheels in accidents) I will have to see what mopar fits best. 300C or Challenger or Charger. I am looking at the SRT 6.4 engine.
One guy swapped a gen 2 or 3 Viper engine but its STOCK pretty much! but thats insane... you have to have the rest of the car support or its a waste.
I am trying to finish my 70 GTO first(LS3, Z06 front suspension and brakes, Ford Mustang Gt500 rear axle(z06 brakes on a Ford), TR6060 transmission, 2004 GTO interior/Body electronics)...
The Belvedere is next but I am just getting it "solidified" where I can feel safe sending the body off to the sandblaster and then put it away in storage for a year "or two"...
The 67 GTO will prob be a simpler swap... stock interior mostly with a ls3..
It's hard to believe that big ass thing is bad in a wreck.
I'd love to have one.
I believe my Uncle had one of those - old 383 cross-ram?

Idiots, simply by being idiots, seem capable of achieving randomly bad things that are beyond the imaginings of sensible people.
