Ya good deal Mario, should be a killer car. We are building a 67 GTO for a customer right now and just happen to notice that one next to your car.:thumbsup:

waynieZ 04-11-2010 06:08 PM

Speaking of parts how about showing us some of them???

214Chevy 04-11-2010 06:28 PM

From the post from all the members, looks like this car has been in the making for a while. With that being said, can you give us who don't know a run down of this beast? Motor, tranny, wheels, etc., you know...plans?:lateral:

It will have Boze wheels (Im still up in the air on the style) 19's all around.I have C6 ZO6 calipers, but this will be changing to Brembos I hope. 572 bb Pro Charged or Injected,but Todd may of helped change my mind on this stay tuned.. Strange 9 inch and axles ,Fab 9 housing done by MCC.MCC hand made fuel tank. Marquez door panels with Recaro seats ,the interior is going to be pretty much stock, I always loved the deluxe console with the gauges in it.Full cage..Anvil front carbon fiber wheel houses .ISIS multiplex electrical. More to come.

DOOM 04-12-2010 12:28 PM

Anyone that wants to lay claim to anything that comes off this beauty let me know. Sorry Kurt the 400 small block and trans are spoken for. The rearend may be gone ,one of the members asked about it but my PM box was emptied so I don't have his info. So if your out there give me a call. The front sub is in nice shape. Someone asked about that awhile back so same thing if your out there and still want it let me know . If no responce for either its up for grabs.I have two sets of front seat also. Thats about it. Oh the hood...... Thats going to go to the highest bidder . Just remeber its a one off guy's!:_paranoid

96z28ss 04-12-2010 03:10 PM

Your Wife must be shocked that the garage is going to be cleaned out

Cris@JCG 04-12-2010 09:07 PM

DOOM 04-13-2010 05:58 AM

Ron I wish it was ! But this is what they used as a throttle cable...:_paranoid

SBDave 04-13-2010 11:56 AM

Drive by wire? A couple years ago I was visiting home and took my old baja bug out for a drive to the store. The throttle cable broke near the gas pesal. I called my dad and he came out to help me. We ran the throttle cable through the back window and he sat in the back seat pulling the wire to operate the gas while I worked the brake, clutch and shifter. We drove it home! Team work.

slamdimpala 04-13-2010 12:33 PM

Mario maybe when you get a little farther in the build i can swing by and shoot the sh*y with you. I dont mind turning wrenches either if you need a hand.

tones2SS 04-13-2010 03:59 PM

WOW!!! ROPE?!?!!?:wow: :_paranoid
