OK, some problems have been found, we new they were there but not to the extent that they were, soooo Time to gut it again and fix it all. My pocket is gonna hate me for this one!!! and the wife will too! here it goes, they do not make qtrs for this car and i was hoping to not do this until they did but we found ALOT of mud in the pass side, apparently the car was hit on that side just behind the door. the drivers side had a few small spots that needed attention but the pass side was way worse then we thought so time to break out the cutting wheel and have at it. Luckily i have a guy(friend or friend) who knows how to make quarters out of flat sheet metal. Man did i luck out! anyway here is the destruction and Reconstruction of my beautiful car.Ill be posting them as we go so check back in..

1964 F-85 Cutlass. The car is beleived to be a 442 body that was changed to a big block and a auto. I wasnt sure if it was or was not a 442 body, but after talking to a few ppl with 442's they seem to beleive it is. boxed rear controls arms, front and rear sway bar from the factory etc.. The car was build once before for a guys wife somewhere in IL. Anyway, i picked up the car and i wanted something different. i saw this and fell in love. shortly after buying it though i found a problem. someone had laid a peice of metal down on the pass side floor and then glassed over it for a quick elcheeepo fix. well to hell with that! lets do it right.. here we go...

step one tear it all out :)
Then cut big whole in the floor, the drivers side had very minor rust, but rather than have a few little patches id rather just redo them both..
Did someone call me??
Well we have to goof off sometime right? me and my buddy Bill.
Bill measures twice and cuts once.lol

    CARHIFI57@aol.com. I had a 65 Cutlass (Surpreme?). Chrome everywhere - dash, trim, bmmpers (front bumper was starting too pit). Beautyfull car. Had a dog 330/4bbl, Edelbrock dual plane, Thrush "garbage can" muffler, Jack Rabbit airshocks, ET mags, "WideOvel" L60's. This was my second car - Senior year in high school (1975). Young and stupid - should have left it alone. My Father (he was a mech/tech for a Pontiac dealership) hated what I did to the car. "Let some air out of those shocks, it looks like s--t ! Drop a S/B Chevy in there and make it a sleeper. I'm now 50 and really miss that car!!!
