Looks pretty straight! You didn't get hurt on that at all for that price!

When i get it out of the car, i'll look around on it, bound to be a part # or something..I'll let you know

Sounds like the B&M Hammer.

Thanks. I like the car a lot, even in it's current state lol

But Today, i hope to get the nose put back on, and seats took out, maybe a few other things too. Aside from that, i think it's ready to be put together

Well, the nose didn't get put back on due to lack of nuts/bolts. He said every nut and bolt off the car was in a box in the trunk, but when i looked, couldn't find any of the fender bolts or anything i needed for the front...

But, I got the B&M shifter out, and got the seats out and managed to find a few dollars in change, a ton of various screws, and a big ass crescent wrench.

Passenger side floor pan has some surface rust, i did a little knocking on it, it sounds the same on both sides, so i THINK it's just surface rust from not having any carpet in and moisture etc. I'll probably sand this lightly and hit it with a coat or 2 of Rustoleum.

But for now, I'm stuck at finding the bumper and fender hardware, i think 5.0 Resto sells them, but i will check.. Here are the shifter pics for those interested and new pics of the car and stuff..

Is it a mega or star shifter and how much?

darkside · 12-13-2009, 03:18 PM

It's like this, only I can't recall seeing the gear indicator on it..

I'd take..120 or best offer w/ shifter cable.

Well, i got the computer and engine harness pulled out today, and traced down some more hacked wiring.

Looks like the car is in for a total re-wire. A guy off of Corral in jasper has been talking to me a lot, and is probably gonna come up and help out with the wiring and everything else, along with another buddy of mine.

I've decided it's going to be Carbureted, but i have yet to decide on a 302 or 351.

Dale McPeters · 12-14-2009, 05:20 PM

Very nice. Looks like you got a good deal on that one.

darkside · 12-14-2009, 05:36 PM

The wiring harness is pretty hacked up, spliced into, etc.. good thing i am going carb set up lol
