This is my Dads car
We will be doing a DD restoration NOT SHOW CAR.
The Frame will be blasted and coated with Por-15
The underbody will get the same.

But where's the pics David? I like that body style but the frame and suspension need a little help to make them work better.

Oh yes! A driver1 Love it.
It's a lot more fun that way. That's how I built my '66 Riv a cosmetic restoration because it is my first car I still love to put miles on it not just look at it and walk around it with a california car duster.

If you want a tuned port system PM me. One of my friends bought it and decided to put it in the closet. He went another way so it's just sitting around. I think he wants $300 for everything including books to adapt it.
