these are a few pics i have of my car, its a 63 lark cruiser and this car is driven every day that it is not snowing. when i got it it was numbers matching with all upgraded options but was in very bad condition. i sold or traded anything that was worth anything, a/c, trim, engine, trans, etc. than began the rebuild process. i stripped the frame patched it painted it and under coated it. i cut the floors out and hand made new ones and welded those in. all 4 doors have new sheet metal from the trim line down. all other misc rust holes were patched as needed. mods include- 64 dash, 62 back seet, 63 wagon front seet and door panels, custome shifter hand made by me, the rear is lowerd 4 in. with HD air shocks for lift, skirts that i hand made, 59 caddy lights molded in my stock lights, backup lights removed and bumper gaurds frenched in in there place and there are front fender speers frome a khiser on the rear fenders. up front the hes been change to a 60 stude which shortens it 4in. i made a mesh grill and filled it with droor pulles, i modified a set of dagmars from a 56 packerd to fit on my bumper, for powr its runing an olds 307 HO from a 442 cutlus. and a TH400 from a 77 buick. the angine is desguessed as a rocket and fulls a lot of people for exaust it hes custome manifolds and no mufflers, it just runs strait out to the lake pipes. the hood is peeked using part of a hood from a 57 chevy and the hood ornament is from a 50 chrysler im sure there are a lot of things i'm leaving out as this car has been 4 years in the making. sorry this is so long, hope you like my car and if you dont thats even better.
