I've had been looking for a nice cruiser to take the place of the Mustang and found a this on Craigslist.
Took a trip to see the car and ended up bringing it home. It wasn't running well, but a few tanks of non ethanol fuel and a few doses of Marvel Mystery Oil seem to be helping that nicely.
Once home I removed the PepBoys flames, neons, chrome fender trim, and misc tweety bird stuff. And cleaned it up a little bit.
The scoop is off for now until it goes to the detailer.
The mobile dent removal guy came by and did a nice job removing some of the bigger dings in the sheet metal. It goes to the detail shop tomorrow to receive some much needed paint repair.
Motor is as far as I know bone stock low compression 318 with a Holley 2bbl carb.
727 Automatic
8 3/4 rear end
Mod plan for now includes getting it up to safety specs and a few appearance mods.
I don't plan for this car to ever be as fast as the Mustang, but it should be a fun weekend cruiser.
