Just brought this home today, most of it on the trailer, the rest of the parts in the van. Someone removed the 331 and tranny a few years ago and left the rest while pondering what to do with it.




I know it probably won't please everyone, but this will be my next 24 Hours of LeMons car, but I also plan to make it street legal. The engine will probably be a 440 and auto tranny from a mid 70's motorhome.

Welcome Dave.

I think this is fantastic. What is your theme?

How about nothing too gaudy but with class like "the true gentleman's automobile"?

 

My initial thought was just keep it looking as-is. They do tend to like the 'barn fresh' look for the older cars. Otherwise, maybe a gangster theme? I haven't looked too much, but ideas would be good.
