    i realize there's a lot of work ahead but it's gotta be a shot in the arm to see it like this.

    it was sold on facebook market place in central Wisconsin a year or so ago, i talked with the seller, he told me it was a different car….well they go thru changes. i ended up talking with the new buyer when he got it, he was also in central wi. i seen it posted back for sale a few weeks ago and we made a deal, he wanted to see it get put back together. so i got it saturday night and worked on freeing up the front brakes and kingpins. i got the front end bolted back in place, got the steering box freed up too, and i think i figured out mostly what they did for rear suspension so ill be working on duplcating that. kinda in parts collecting phase now for a bit.

    @***us Thank you!
    I annoyed me to see it like that, and I sure didn't have the funds to go get it, so double save!

    This one’s pretty nifty with the blown Olds, magnesium 5 spokes, weed burner style headers, I could probably get used to that shade of green, but that silly scoop…..ugh. Those, the fake shot guns and the weird elongated fake Enderle really detract from some otherwise really cool cars.

    so some hipster was brave enough to try and make a clone of piero's tweedy pie. pretty good effort i guess but you can spot some mistakes if you look close like i did. Tweety Pie.jpg
