    Sketchy-Ass Stuff...

    I used to jack up my 455 cid olds custom cruiser station wagon with one of these. (5500 pounds or so)

    Can I get Opinions on Exhaust systems?

    I used the NPD a factory style for my 302. Great system but the H pip I bought with it didn’t fit so well….very good otherwise.

    Fender removal

    Yes if you are referring to the L shaped front edge of the fender those can stay on. You do have to remove the valance, and probably the bumper. On my car the grill is under the fenders, so it can stay on…. In the area of the spring and upper control arm, remove all the goop.

    Did anyone see this? Another hack job at Mecum goes for $51,500!

    My 71 interior is way nicer than that, and I have a custom 2-tone paint job, and AC, and new wiring, and mines a convertible, much rarer, it’s also got the fuel sipping 302, a much greener car! Can I have 100k please? I will set my reserve @$101k!!

    Did anyone see this? Another hack job at Mecum goes for $51,500!

    Yeah over priced I guess, but good for the rest of us when we sell….its not a horrible car…I do see interior and weatherstripping issues, as well as possible rust covered over, on the front drivers pillar below the hinges, it’s pretty rough…that dash center stack is a mess.

    Old question, new day

    Here is the car in fully loaded road trip config with spare and a weekend of luggage and food…and a few beauty shots right after I completed the build. Keep in mind a full winding cut tucked my front a small amount, and was the look I was going for…

    Old question, new day

    Yeah mine was in the air forever…I cut one winding off. The ride is not harsh. 2 suggestions..make sure your front assembly is sort of loosely put together, especially LCA to frame mount . This allows some settling. Of course any driving should be careful and slow and short until everything...
