Well, this is the beginning of the end for a very long project. I bought the car for $250 with putting a lot of time and money into it in mind. Not this much time or as much money as I have into it. But that is the way it goes, it has been a great learning experience and my next car, either a 66 GTO or a 69 SS Camaro, will go a lot smoother. Oh, and they will have high output big block V8s. This car took a lot of body work and a lot of other work I didn't know it needed in the beginning, such as rust hols in the floor boards, all new wheather striping, etc. But I alway knew I wanted it black. I would love to do something sweet with the paint, but I cant decide what. I will have pictures of the finnished car as soon as it is finnished, in a few weeks...
Specs:
Engine: 2.8L V6: Bored .30 over: Performance Cam
Rear Gear: 3.42 I think
This is the eye sore that I originally bought, I re-built the engine in my auto shop class, spent many days skipping language to work on it.
This was hidden under a crappy torn hood braw and didn�t I see it until after I bought it and started to tear it apart, I replaced it with a clip from CarPartsWholeSale.com
This was a big surprise, rust spots that had to be removed via saws all, and replaced w/sheet metal.
Sanding this whole thing down was quite the chore.
First coat of black
Here, the doors are finaly almost don.
Almost there.
Gotta' Love the clear coat.
Out with the old and in with the new.
I am envisioning the finished car
This is the car after I was all done skinning it with sand paper.
This is the best finnished picture I have. Just a short time fter I finnished the car I blew up the engine and it will have to sit untill next year.
