Notes: |
I inherited this car from my Father who was killed befor I was born. I started working on it in 1994 and have been going ever since. Its taken every spare dime I have ever earned, ruined the first date with my wife, came close to leaving us on our wedding night and has been on the back of a tow truck more than any other car I have ever owned. I still love it but the more I spend the more it wants. Its been ground up restored twice, and now needs a wireing harness.
Future plans...I want to make this car a Shelby gt350 clone, dressed in Guardsman Blue w/ Wimbledon White Stripes, and all the interior and exterior trim possible. Put '93 Cobra fuel injection on my 289, convert to 5 spd tranny w/ the stock looking shifter, re-gear the rear w/ 3.73 and Torque Thrust Rims. My goal is to have a 350 hp car that has good street manners, and A/c. Then do all the Shelby Suspension mods from 1965 to get the handling dialed in. |
