i burned half the day driving this shitheap around, it is the absolute worst best car ever, although i still have a few rattles to shut up, i need to finish the window regulators and lots of little other things here and there, but now i can drive it around in between fixes  :drive:

today i found another 68 coronet dash frame, cut the top off of it and trimmed down the 06 dash just enough for them to fit together fairly nicely, im actually really surprised how decent this turned out  :lol:

70 sublime

That is the owner working on the door in the picture

Said he wanted to know how long he had to leave it here before he could call it a barn find
I said I could throw some hay on it if that would help  :nana:

He will have to explain the duct tape in the second picture

But I did like the way the head lights worked nice and bright :2thumbs:
next project 70 Charger FJ5 green

Baldwinvette77

the duct tape made it go faster, naturally

$300 fiberglass grille, $80 amazon retro-modern headlights and a 67 camaro spoiler, its also important to note i still never got around to installing the window regulators i got from 70 sublime  :slap: but it does look pretty darn good now.

The 72 has come a long way from when you first bought it

Original red car white interior and matching numbers 340 motor
