Sad. SAD...SAAD..

The guy who bought it from the builder i N.Y USA, coudnt do anything...have 10 thumbs. So i bought it. And Ive started to get the parts. Ebay...everywhere. A lot of work.

I think this a 2 years project.

 This is a George Barris Approved Custom. In repect for the Man and the old style of customizing this car is done like the customizer legends did it in the 60s. I want it even better than from the start of this project.

PLANS. 

A old engine or fix the 69 Camaro engine, 65 T-Bird bucket seats and back seat. and 59 olds steeringwheel. The interior I will do at Swedens best leather-interior maker.(1 year of waiting) Italian Pearl White Vinyl. Classic 60s style and I think this is gettin a nice ride:)

 

2008.

august 2008: Got the parts to the dash from USA. Chrome, orginal Delco radio with speaker++

september 2008: Bought Roths flake (to the dashboard). And Painless wiring from EZ.

2009.

february 2009: ordered 65 T-bird seats and steering wheel to a 59 olds from PG Larsson bildelar/junkyard in Sweden.

59 Olds steering wheel & 65 T-Bird bucket seats.

All this is old classic custom trick from the 60s.

 

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

The rest will be as orginal as it was build from the start, the paint and scallops.

I will return with pictures and information of the building of my baby.
