1971 sunoco javelin build
 

Hey everyone my name is Brandon Mock I'm starting a 1971 Sunoco Mark Donohue replica build. If you didn't know I'm Scott Mocks son. He bought a nice rust free 71 Javelin last year. He was going to build it,but has desided to build a 66 Chevelle instead.So he gave me the car to build. I plan to run a weld in clip for corvette front suspenion,splined sway bar up front,DSE rear sway bar & wiper motor,corvette C-6 brakes front and rear. We are going to retrofit a ridetech(1st.gen camaro) four link for the rear suspension W/Ride Tech coil overs. I have a 383 Small block chevy that came from Dad's 66 chevelle. And a 5 speed trans out of a S-10 for a trans,8.8 ford W/3:73posi for rear axle. I have alot of left over parts from dad and Kevin. Seats will be Corbeau's FX1's,Alum. Radiator from the 66 chevelle,Alum drive shaft from a Ford police car.We just got the car in the shop today & Built a roll around dolly for it. We will start getting it apart tomorrow. Dad had Carter Hickman do really cool rendering for the build last year. This is going to be a real budget build. I am only 16 and work part time. Dad and Kevin have came up with a ton of really great parts to help me out. I have all the tools that I will need to complete the build. I'm sure dad & Kevin will help out with alot of the fab. Brian Kellison of Kellison's Kustom's will be painting it.The big expence for me will be wheels and tires.I really like the formula 43 (Rad 10)wheels.

Going to try and get somemore pictures tomorrow of the car and will get them posted up soon

That will be a cool project. Welcome to the site.

I loves those car and you don't see many. Going to be an awesome project. Make sure to post lots of pics.

Very cool project, I have a 69 Javelin myself, also installed one of Scott's subframes under my car, very nice. I can't wait to see the build.

Thanks,
Jon

:cool: Cool love it! Should be bad azz with your dad and brother helping!!

Brandon's a hard working young man.He works part time during school/full time in the summer at the same place (Custom Moblie equipment) as His Brother's Kevin & Bryce.He's also a starter on the high school & legion Baseball team's.So finding time to build this project is going to be tuff.He give's Kevin fits on the gokart track,so he might be a pretty good wheel man when the car is finished.Brandon's been wanting he own car to atend the GoodGuy's with.I had the javelin,and aton of part's.So now he can stop buggin me and GET TO WORK.It should be fun working togather on this project.He want's a racecar so it will be perfect for him.I am wanting something more compfortable.This is going to be the budget of all budget build's.Let's see how far we can stretch a dollar.The 383 small block was in the 66 chevelle I just picked up.It's was not what I wanted,so it will work go for this project.I welded an alum. radiator for a friend and that's were the S-10 5 speed came from.We'll be watching the for-sale section here and over on protouring for good deals,on C-6 componets,18" wheels,Seat harness's,Wiring harness, autometer gauges,& odds & ends.I will be helping,and guiding.:thumbsup:

Cool build,


When I used to go to CA all the time, I know a guy there who had many in a private Ford yard, looked into buying one, but I felt he was wanting to much for one, and since it was out by the High Desert everything was dryer than toast!!

post lots of pics,

that will be a fun project! I always liked those cars and the lines on their fenders.

we got the car up on the lift today kevin and dad helped out a lot we got the front and rear suspenion out of the car will have some pictures up shortly
