My new POS
 
Well guys I bought a 80's El Camino, with a 396/TH400 & a blown up rear end

I pulled the cover off the rear hoping that the spider gears were just toast, well they were but so was everything else, so I am trying to find another rear as of now & I may have found a whole parts car that could supply a new rear end & hood

It needs a tune up, but is a pretty good car... other than ugly :lol:

I will wind up painting it Blitz black & call it Felix (Felix the cat)

Heres tha pics :metal:

I pulled the rear cover off & the rear end is toast through & through, all the bearing & gears & one axle is bent !!!

oh yeah, those 7.5" rear ends are as strong as wet bread. no wonder they came behind 307s and 231s.

what's that with the apes in the background? I agree about the sweet piece of land. What i could do with that much property. Or i should say, how many cars would i pile into that kind of land?

Ha ha, no

I guess I never terminated this build thread lol... I decided VERY shortly after starting this project that I REALLY didnt like the car, so I jerked the engine & trans out :D

Trans I have traded off & the engine is going in my old truck Sinister :cool:
