Exactly why I chose it for you :unibrow: :lol: :cheers:

Todd he's just paranoid :_paranoid

:thumbsup: Email sent....

Trust me, I understand the love of musclecars. I wish I had the time, skill, and budget of some of the big guys that play in this space. It's exactly what I would ultimately love to do with my own toys...

Between my father and I, we've owned several 69's and 70-73's, and I agree that I prefer the latter also. It's hard to go wrong with any choice, as long as you enjoy it and have fun with it. Just make sure you are as realistic as you can be with all of your goals up front.

Happy shopping! :cheers:

Good find...

Why does the lexan HAVE to be replaced? Todd ain't building Payback Part 2.


I remember seeing that one and thinking it would be a great starter for someone. Nice find. Jer Dog might be getting that bird dog check in the mail soon. :unibrow:

All that stuffing & cranberry sauce have clouded your mind :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Thanks. But really can't take credit, It has been for sale for a while I just remembered about it

Great find Jerry. :thumbsup:

My thinking of what Todd was looking for was definitely clouded. Thought he was looking for a project he could strip all the weight out of and make purpose built.

Hey Todd here is one, I think the paint will buff out and it has the fiber optic blinkers on the tops of the fenders. Good luck on your search. Can't wait to see what you end up with. Gaetano was right there are a lot of 2nd gens in the Sacramento Area.

MA car sold....

I'm not sure I really see why you would start with a 20k painted restored car. Your going to have to mod the body to really get it to do anything. A really nice shell with a cheap paint job later on makes more sense both cost and warrior wise.

But if your buying a painted car I would want and older paint job so the sins that lie beneath the surface will have made their way to the top in a bubble or crack already.

MA car was too clean. Last thing I want to hear again is "Gaetano, this is pro-touring not pro-racing" :rofl:

If I was to do a car like this I would consider not paying for a painted one and get a wrap done. Rodger's post makes sense.

Good luck Todd! Hemmings has vintage race cars pop up from time to time, and includes auction listings:

like this one sold for $41k, and you'd be "done"

That thing is killer. :thumbsup:

That car gets the juices flowing.:thumbsup:

I don't want to lose all resale as I will sell it. :unibrow: It will still have a plate and I'll drive it on the street so I don't want a full race car. I'm really just shooting for a more race oriented pro touring car like Brians, just not on that level. I'd like to be able to reuse some things. I don't plan to minitub the car or do any extensive fabrication. After building my last car, I have a better idea of what I want.

Nothing fancy becasue I'm going to beat the living crap out of it, but nice. :lol:

I'll know the right car when it comes along. :lol:

This car went for 20k.

Bummer

Cant believe that car went for 20. What a steal.

I tried to buy it when he was asking 33k, I offered 24k he said no You'll find the "one"

Race oriented PT, gonna drive it on the street, would like to preserve resale, no mini tub....

In your shoes (I'm not) I'd get as nice a restored car as you can with as little specialty motor/suspension/brakes as possible, unless the perfectly modded car came along at the right price.

There's something to be said for a car that's got a documented history of rust repair, paint done/clean bottom, all the niggly stuff that you would otherwise have to purchase. Mod as you see fit and do BOS/Payback style refresh when you're ready to move it.

You're a pretty linear dude and I know you'll find exactly what you're looking for...:cheers:

You wouldn't have bought it anyway.... tire kicker. :lol:

I'm just trying to give you a chance to be on the road first. :D

I appreciate that more than you. :D
