This was my plan- exacly. Well, w/o the turbo.
Here's the quick story:
I found the car advertized in Hemmings in, of all places, Franklin Co. Virginia - moonshine country. Black, factory stripe delete, added chrome trim and extra leaf in leaf springs at point of purchase (I have the reciept dated Nov. 1969)... You do the math.
I bought the car from the nephew of the orig. owner, who had committed suicide after he thought the Feds were going to throw the book at him for selling the supplies for 'shine. Nephew inherited the car after uncle shoots himself in '99, and totally restores it after pulling from the barn it had been in since '76. I've added the 18" Boyd's, TTI headers and x-pipe system, Mighty Demon 750 annular, and an Edelbrock Perf. RPM intake. Original manifolds, carb., etc. are in my attic. All #'s matching. I don't have the heart to cut it up.
Here's a shot of some of the minor clean up i've been doing...
I'm now in the hunt for something else to do the g-machine idea with. Maybe an E or A body. OR... maybe get in line for a '08 Challenger!
