Project F...bird - suicidal Firebird 68 vert!

Thanks they are coming along

Yep I started in the bilt 400 direction and actually had a nicelly built 400 (rated at 450HP) ready to go in I already had spent time putting together, then cleaning, painting etc, then 4 speed Muncie. Was a hard call, but as the 67 coupe 400 is matching numbers I was looking to go a bit wilder on this build, so subtle body modifications.

My garage is 9 feet tall I have a few inches of space between the roof of the car, then a few inches of space between upper car and ceiling. Just enough to clear Cars are about 51" tall, the vert wil have air ride so will actually be lower when stored, so depending what cars you have you can definitely make it work. The lift was the best investmenmt ever, great storage plus makes working on the cars so much safer and easier!

Im definitely going to look into a lift then.

oh by the way, if a tall girl shows up wanting to beat you up, dont worry its just my wife for giving me this lift idea. haha

Lol anytime It was tough convincing my wife, but you can drop hints about working on the car safely, getting thing done quicker, space to store the cars and more space for her things in the garage etc lol Good luck!!!
