Well for the first time I get to be a part of one of those car guy dreams!! Finding a all original car sitting in a barn for over 18 years. Local guy advised of a car sitting in a Chicken farm barn for years, he picked it up and I bought it from him. Car sat unmolested for years down here in South GA, nothing like blowing the dust off a all original, all there 1970 Challenger!!! Its all there every piece of trim, interior, 440, automatic car. Solid as the day it left the factory!! Only missing piece is the carb!! The original keys in the ignition and all that jazz!!! Car is a mess and will be nice project to start with, hell I dunno what to do with a solid car!!
Future plans: hope for a SEMA debut!!!! Exterior: HOK Limetime pearl with flat black stripes 19x10/20x12 Forgeline SP3 Wheels Nitto Tires Wilwood brakes Full shaved exterior Plus some extras interior: Full cage Aftermarket seats, column , etc Full Rockford Fosgate Stereo Suspension: Front:C6 Vette Rear: moser Dana 60 and custom 3 link Hydraboost brake booster Frame: Full 1.5" DOM round tube bumper to bumper Engine: Ok plans change!! 426 Aluminum headed Hemi from World Products, shooting fo 600 RWHP backed by a TKO 5 speed Lots of other goodies along the way!! More pics coming this weekend, going to pick it up in a few hours, and give it a bath!! She'll be torn down and media blasted this weekend. |
Oh wow... love the barn finds, very cool. Project sounds great, must say it'll be interesting to see a burn out powered by Veggie oil!!
|
That was a nice score no doubt:thumbsup:
|
Hate to say it....but that one may need to go all original???
|
Original is almost a 4 letter word to me!! lol:beavis:
I thought about that!! I really did, but I find it easier to cut it up than restore it. Man I have issues!!:cheers: |
Man, that's awesome. Congrats on the score. You need to keep us up to speed on the progress.
:cheers: |
Wow, nice score Chad!:thumbsup:
|
Very cool Chad, What a find!!! Congrats and keep the pics coming of course. :yes:
|
Its gonna be a long road ahead, for sure. We got a busy weekend planned already. The plan is buy Sunday night for it to be completly stripped, media blasted, and on the frame table to start cutting it up!! Ben Hermance is handling the rendering for it as usual for me. I am hoping this car will cause some ruckus around the industry being Veggie oil powered and all. nothing like lighting em up with thick black smoke pouring out the back

As far as leaving it stock, got asked this morning by a big mopar guy the same thing. I told him just think your original mopar just increased in value!! Cause now there is one less. I tell you what I want cut it up if someone will give me $15K for it, and I'll go buy a junker. But better hurry the knife comes out in the morning. |
