Sitting in my basement, i have to sand and paint the bumper brackets from and rear and put them on which will be done soon. It just got done being painted(year long wait) and thank you.

NICE!!! Where I live, all of my neighbors have something going. One has a '32 Ford 3 Window, another has a '66 Chevelle with a 454 swapped in plus a drag Nova, etc. I grew up watching over their shoulders and helping.
They thought I was crazy coming after them with a Miata, but some have learned to respect it. lol

haha, He was wondering why i was parking it behind the gto and in the shade. Thats awesome. When i get out of school and the funds are there I will do a 66 chevelle or a 79-81 malibu, either would be a big block...love the sounds.

Yeah man....you know me, I am all about old skool rides.
66 Chevelle would be sweet, although I am slightly partial to the 67, same car really with a prettier grill. A friend of mine had a sweet 66 with a ZL1 all aluminum 427 big block. Mean!!

This was my last toy. It had a 502 fuel injected BB with Hotchkis suspension all around, aluminum drive shaft, Corvette 17x9.5 wheels on all four. I miss it. It ran 11's in the 1/4





I did all the work myself except the paint.

That's awesome! I really enjoy cleanin redone/modded(restomod BJ terms) camaros. Too bad you don't have it anymore and were going for 11's with this, possibly tens if we put the bottle in it. And the way they shaped the grill around the headlights on 67's so the fenders kind of poked out at the ends looks kinda funky to me(if that makes sense) and I'll black my car out. I like the extremely understated clean look on old cars.


:EDIT: I like to see all the people come out of the wood works with their old cars or their enjoyment of them.

Thanks! I wished I still had it. I actually drove this car, it was my daily driver for 5-6 years, I drove it to daytona beach for the Turkey Run too. I'm not into fixing a car up and not enjoying it.

[mustangtomiata]

Definitely, if its just gunna sit take a picture it lasts longer. Cars were meant to be driven.
