My only projects are 4-5-6 Chevy trucks...so I don't have anything exciting to share.

Caution... projects, like junk, always expand to exceed the space allocated to them!

Super73 · 02-15-2009, 03:55 PM

Well, I just picked up another project/driver. 67 Cougar. Body needs some work, but the motor runs strong. Disk brakes went on it about 4 months ago as well as a new chrome front bumper, came with 2 sets of trim and with Torque Thrust 2 wheels. I got it at a steel. $500.. Original CA car with minor surface rust in a few spots. No major rot.

So now I have:
63 Chevy pick up
67 Continental vert suicide
67 Cougar
73 Camaro
01 Chevy Trailblazer SS

suzq044 · 02-15-2009, 11:45 PM

My new Cherokee Laredo; this is NOT our yard; In fact the Camaro in the foreground is for sale for like.. 800 or something.
It needs a few things before getting it back to the house.

originalJD · 02-16-2009, 02:22 AM

I've always got some sort of project going other than my truck. I just completed this gauge cluster for a 78 Camaro I'm working on.

Update on the other Projects!

My Dads PROJECT: TYRANNORAMBLER REX-->
A 1969 AMC Rambler American N/PS is undergoing a brain transplant.
He is swapping the 388 stroker out for a....... 283 which he is going to make a 302 out of it.
The 388 stroker is already wore out. One of the heads was bad.
He says he is going to make a 6 sec (8th mile) car out of that 302.......
So she is not for sale anymore!!!!!!
I do have pictures of the transformation, and will post them soon!
