Yeah I think I’ve got one or two guys lined up so fingers crossed that it’s not too terrible.If you were closer i would offer assistance, hopefully you have an extra set of hands to help
Spent the day at the resto shop working around the 64. It will be moved out and onto the lift 1st of next week.
Frame will be stripped of suspension and then blasted.
They use a specific bed liner coating on the frames. When it dries it looks pretty good.
Once coated it comes over to me at my shop and then its on.
When it leaves it will be a complete roller frame. Drive train/brakes/exhaust etc.
They will do the body.
Pics will be forthcoming.
Yup. I have had enough practice...You are getting compensated for all of your work aren’t you?
Does he also work on C4's? I may farm mine out just to help keep forward momentum going. I rebuilt it myself many moons ago and did a pretty good job but it's been sitting on the shelf for 20+ years so a good once over is the right move.I have the T-400 sourced and being built by an Ingo member.
The converter is in the mail.
The list has been passed along and the funds are rolling in.
Looks like we might actually get going here soon.
Are these the timing marks, or is the picture playing tricks on me?
Also got to love chrysler water pump design.

I will ask him. He is not brand specific. His shop does all makes/etc. He is located North west are of the state.Does he also work on C4's?

Good griefOh my just watched Carrol Shelby's 427 Cobra sell for 5.4 mil at the Mecum auction down in Kissimmee.
That actually seems a little low for his documented personal car. Especially with the Bullitt Mustang getting what it did. Of course when you get into pockets that deep I have zero point of reference. C'mon Mega! C'mon Powerball!Oh my just watched Carrol Shelby's 427 Cobra sell for 5.4 mil at the Mecum auction down in Kissimmee.
A Family ThunderBolt. What could be any better.This is such a unique vehicle in it's original form I believe a nicely done restomod would have been more appropriate but hey, Different strokes for different folks!

The surfboard is a nice touch though!
Man I bet you are missing it.Just got a call on my GN. They have the wiring fixed and it's back together. The price was well into the high end of what I'd hoped for but talking to the mechanic, he fixed a lot more that what I melted down. They are going to get an estimate on fixing the exhaust leak and alignment. I'm hoping to get that done before I pick it up. The exhaust should be the crossover pipe or a cracked drivers side header. The crossover I can handle, the header will be a good job for them. I'll let them do either while they have it if not too many $'s. I'll be anxious to get it back in my garage.
Go to the 9:30 min mark. Check out the shop and then the purple Charger. OMG. Insane the work that was put into it.
