1969 Torino

[390 S code]

Rob
It has been creating some interest at the engine shop ,it will look even better nestled between the rails in the car .I am heading back to work Monday so hopefully when i get home the build will be complete .Still some work ahead with the exhaust to be built from the collectors back .I will then finish fuel lines and fit the FAST ECU . Will also setup radiator looking at a AFCO twin pass .The only drama is the hot days in the shed we have had days in the high 30 's C makes it a little uncomfortable .All the best for Christmas and a Happy New Year .

Happy holidays Mark. Can't wait to see yours up and running. High 30s like 37 or 38 ? That is on the warm side if you add any humidity.

that is a clean looking formal roof. Check out Jason's Torino 420 on this site. He has a really clean Formal with a stroked Windsor in it.
Thanks for the props.

Well the new thread name through me off, I only came to look at again because i thought it was a new build! But what a great idea!, Ill get my car sent over to them and let them know to just add it to your tab

but no, i had to check on the progress of the other land yachts, even though i think mine is bigger than yours.....

Big girls gotta stick together I had a 70 GTO convertible a lifetime ago.

As a Pontiac guy you could have a vintage tunnelport of your own. They even make modern day Ram Air V castings.
