1972 Skylark Restoration(Lots of Pics)

As Speedtrigger stated in another post this mess was caused by miss communication on both sides. What I'm sure most members would like to see is DeeVeeEight & Phoenix350 admit that they each UNINTENTIONALLY made a mistake & apologize to the other. Then, like MEN, they can decide how to fix the problem.

By the way Jacob, scrapping over nine bucks is rather childish, no mater if you are right or wrong. Please do your part to solve this so that we can continue to enjoy the saga of your restoration. Good luck!

 

I would like to work something out, honestly its still in the box it came in and I don't need it. There is a complete factory power disk car down the street from me I could probably buy the whole swap for $50. If Deeveeeight sold it I would cover reasonable shipping when I have the time and money.

In other news for those who care:

The car is on the road and driving great. I put 120miles on it today just driving around to test it. Brakes are amazing for manual drum and the car cruises at 60 like a champ. No death trap here.

 

I would like the parts back. Would you please send them to me?

Thank You.

 

I'll try and head to the post office tomorrow, pm me your address please

 

PM sent.

The car is officially a daily driver. I made the trip down to Queens without issue. Aside from a bouncy ride (I need new shocks) and lots of squeaking from the bumper brace scraping the fender the car rides fine. It sure is an assualt of sound when driving between the leaky headers, loud music and the damn squeaking. The car also pulls to the left and has some play in the center link but I will be doing most driving below 40mph so it should be fine till I find a job down here. I love driving on the GCP lots of tunnels to blast through :Brow:
