ABOVE IS LINK TO ABOUT 50 PICS Ok, way too much to list here so I will just touch on the basics. I have been building cars for over 30 years and used to know what I was doing. I am looking for someone who understands what it is and doesn't think they can buy a rusty EBAY shell and build this for $10k. Car has all original sheetmetal with only one 5x5 patch in the pass footwell. 1/4's have small lip patches. Otherwise all original. It was built to be what GM would have built if they sold a lite weight street race model. All the mods are done with period correct parts or with modified GM parts. It was a clip off resto with more new clips and bolts then I can remember. Paint is new and made to look old. It has fooled everyone who has seen it especially since it is dusty. I have had Camaro guys stare at this thing for an hour not understanding where the parts came from or why theirs is different. Some mods: Fake battery (hand formed metal) that is actually cool can. (shipper tried jumping till cover fell off. Bowtie stamped fenderwells bowtie stamped wiper delete monte carlo bar spring loaded hood pins stamped heater delete firewall (no bolt on0 hidden vac can for cam wiring delete hood latch delete wiper delete door vent block offs dash glove box and vents delete factory looking rear seat delete radio delete door panel delete ( factory upper upholstery with all holes plugged) factory looking seat harness mounts adjustable seat back braces period correct diamond pattern seats mounted on factory adjusters factory looking rear lid pin system factory looking trunk mtd battery set up (needs tar topper) rubber mounted additional clips factory looking tire squirters for killer burn outs, look at detail in lines and can mounting, I have template for custom GM "Traction Master" label for real OEM look Factory looking cut off with led hidden in bowtie etc, etc, etc Engine is low mile fully built 427 that ran 12.40's in a fully loaded car (this car is a lot lighter and better suspension) . Autogear tranny, centreforce, Lakewood shield, New 9" rear (yeah I know) Engine sounds nasty at idle with NOS Thrush mufflers. No used junk. Look at the wiring and hose routing. Everything is new mechanically. Brakes are drums but again every clip is new and they have expensive Porterfield shoes that will stop like discs. Custom Landrum springs, fake Hurst shocks, etc, etc. All new weatherstrip, gas tank, etc, etc Ok I know you either get it or not. I do not want to sell but I am going on 3rd spine surgery and car has is not going on a drive anytime soon as my neck can't handle the ride. PLEASE NO BS !!!! Care needs windshield, headliner (I would delete) some small trim (under$100), final go through and tune. Paint is 3-4 years old and body is straight. I hope the link to the pics works? If not email and I will send. asking $22k which considering the drivetrain is a fair deal. I know what cars and parts cost as I have been in the industry for years. I am moving and would like to sell before the move otherwise it gets packed away for my kids. Located in Poway Ca. PM for contact info if SERIOUS! I am serious seller. |
