70's style street machines

^Wild!
I wouldn't call it a waste of a W engine.
Some careful panel painting would fix all the sins.

 

^X2!

 

"She's NOT Real Fine"

 

What if I told you that you and I posted the exact same car. I photographed the vehicle back in 03-04 at a show in Tacoma Washington.

 

Bought this with a 235 and open driveline changeover in the fall of 1968. By the fall of 1969 the plans were in effect. After the holidays 69-70 it was swapped over to a 383 Chrysler and four speed. Drove it through the summer until I had some clutch problems by the fall and with no place to work on it parked it. By spring of 71 I sold off the engine and transmission and while had plans and collecting parts to go with a 327 and Muncie 4 speed it never came to happen and sold,the body off in the summer of 72.

 

The car ciub I belonged to years ago helped set up an ISCA show in the civic center in town. this "Farrah" vette was one of the cars we set up.

I spy the Denimachine in the background there...

 

This is my survivor. Just took it out of the shop it has been in since 1988.
