OK Rick, I promise not to keep things

The engine is a 440 RHS tall deck block, Ozmo manifold, dry sump and all top self internals.

Sieg, I hope to get it back to the paint shop, while we are in the States in July and hopefully finished by the end of the year.

Great progress.

I was just wondering if you were going to run that suspension as a 5 link? I know AM offer both the 3 and 4 link option, but is there a reason to run 5?

Just curious.

Andrew, it"s the same setup that was being used in Project Unfair, I believe there is only the 2 of them. I will use the 4 link for the drags and the 3 link for everything else.

Dang Greg....way to grab everyone's attention!

Crazy nice and I can't wait to see more!!

Oh yeah! That'll work!


Thanks for FINALLY posting.... You and I must share that little hold out gene.... I'm big on posting but not big on posting what I'm doing. LOL


You know -- I have to say -- that so many of these cars end up with a complete re-do after being bought when they "looked" okay.... but what we have to remember is that for many many years these cars weren't worth towing to the junkyard... and then there were a few years of "recovery" where they were still just cheap cars... so the repairs were commensurate with their values. It's only now that we can put the proper repairs to them because they're worth the cost and effort. Glad you saved another one.

WHen I saw the title of the thread I thought there was an emergency!
You should rename the car 'holdout', lol.

Congrats Greg. Beautiful car
