naw the ole lady wants me to build it for her. im not going to hard top this one though just do it with some slanted pillars and prob go mustang 2 front end and bag all 4 corners. my mind has been going with ideas for this one. mines not even done and im allready starting another one. but now i can do this one a little better then mine since i learned a lot from doing mine.
To each his own but there are too many cars I want real bad to have two of the same cars. This coming from a guy with two 59 Buicks in my side yard but Im making one good one with it. None the less still a good score looks nice.
looks like a nice, solid foundation for a sled. did i just use the word sled? jeez, sorry. not to hi-jack your post, but could you post or e-mail me some pictures of your rear airbag setup? not the trunk like your thread last week, but underneath. i'm lookin' to bag mine in sometime in june and need to see how others have set theirs up. thanks in advance. tred.
That old 50 is gonna make The Boss happy when ya get it done... ...when are we PAINTING it???!!! (The incidentals such as a drivetrain and suspension mods can come later!!) His-N-Hers 50 Chevs...pretty cool!!!
well the orig plan was for her to drive it stock for a while and only lower it and paint some scallops on it and a do a white roof. but fathack found me a doner car (82 cutlass) so instead of wasting time lowering the stock suspension and messing with it, we are just going to tear into and revamp the drive train and c-notch the rear and put the cutlass frame stub under it. since its for the ole lady i wanted it to be updated with power brakes and steering and all that nice shit. she can drive my car fine and all but nicer stuff would be better. im going to start stripping it , shaving it and cutting it up after billetproof. so be ready for all kindsa fun. i want to kinda build the car on the hamb so it will be fun to see the progress go. and i work fast when im motivated to, so it should come together in a month or so. cause since this is her car she wont have any problems spending all kindsa money on it.
I'm going to sound like your mother here for a minute. Please let Alex drive this for the summer and have alittle fun with it BEFORE you go tearing into it. The "upgrades" will take much longer the you think and before you know it, fall will be here and Alex will have not have had any seat time in it. The girl deserves a car of her owned this summer......especially since she bought it I swear Alex did not bribe me to say this
You got rid of the blue paint and you didn't even make a week before you got another one. Nice find, looks like a clean car and a good deal for around here.
Nice ride Man!!! I thought it was going to be a beater for 1k...... I also dig your moms ride....How many people have a mom that rolls in a super clean 67 camaro........!!!!! That's pretty awsome that she is so cool. I forgot to ask 62wagon about the paint sesion on Monday.(Damit) I wanted to ask him if we could paint the bed on the studebaker truck....Oh well maybe next time. I'm driving the dodge out to "Bakers" today around 4 or 5 oclock. Anyone else going?
hey that was my idea too. i thought she would be all about doing that. but she wants me to do all the upgrades before she drives it. i wont chop it and do any major body mods untill winter comes. plus i would feel better about her driving it with newer style suspension/steering and brakes. like i said she does my car fine but im allways right there ya know. but she makes the rules so i just do what she says other wise id be sleeping with the opossum
