Re: rare 1964 jetfire

I rarely ever post, but this car is worth posting about. It is your car and you should do what you want with it regardless of what anyone says. That being said- I would like to offer my 2 cents... I love cutting stuff up, and everything I own is cut up- but none of it is rare or unique. This car is a unique piece of history regardless of whether it is valuable or not. And it appears very complete. Aluminum block, factory turbo, factory meth injection- in 1964. Too cool! That is a hood I would definitely look under at a car show. If you put an LS motor in it, you will be just like everybody else (I'm not an LS hater either- It is my favorite powerplant, but it is not unique). The car will lose its novelty factor. I would absolutely love to find a car like that and do a factory resto. Great Find!
