Itll be good to see the before and after!

i sure will. right now im only saving because any car restoration place i call in my area of ohio and michigan wont touch it because its "too new"


thats code for "all the parts are still readily available so we couldnt possibly get away with charging you more than $9,000 for a full tear down and restore"

i even asked a few muscle car owners i know and they basically agreed.


this is why muscle cars run 20k and up for a restore which is sad.

well its a hand me down from my mom, she took great care of this car. but the model year flaws kinda took away from it. its got 163k on it


newer motor installed just over a month ago with 92k on it.


i havent done any mods to it, not looking to do anything but restore it as i've heard from car nuts i know that it would take under 10,000 for a full restore.


what else would you like to know,man?

i was clearly floored by the "race"
