wouldnt mind having a 70-71 torino fastback or even a 71+ dodge demon/dart-sport but lately ive been lusting a 65 skylark to build for auto-x 370ci swap,200r4 with manual valve body, beefy swaybars, fast ratio box, turbilar control arms,2in drop springs all around ,17s, and ls1/corvette brakes setup oh and fiberglass front end parts
Already got my dream "car" Bought it on New Years Eve...:TU: :bglasses: Don't even plan to license it....
That would be a cool car. When I was younger my buddy had a 440 R/T. Fast and dangerous in the hands of youth. Top of my list is a 65GS though. 65 Sportwagon with a nailhead is on the list also. I would like to get a mid 70's vette for a daily driver, although the prices are getting higher on those than I think they should be, and of course there is a Series II, IIA, or III Land Rover 109 outfitted with newer rover running gear.
I hope that you park that THING out of the neighbor's sight! Will you be plowing the grass with that Ford like you used to do with the Wheel Horse? I do like the bodywork on the RR quarter and the former owner gains bonus redneck points for using garden edging as the wheel well lip/mud flap. uzzled: uzzled:
Are you kidding? On the cul de sac where I live, 3 of the 5 homes have their own dedicated plow trucks. We're out in the woods here, so can hide them in the summer. Neighbors love them as we're on a private road off another private road and maintain them ourselves. Very few people out here still have a job, so we keep it pretty clear all the time. (p.s. our wives still work....what a concept!) Think this would be a little rough on the yard...I did buy a snowblower attachment for my big wheelhorse precisely for that task. Have to leave the snow blade off to do that, so bought another snow blade for one of the little 12 hp tractors. BTW, check out the air deflector on the leading edge of the hood......almost looks like it belongs there......:laugh: :laugh: :laugh: I have some leftover vinyl siding from my garage, maybe I can work that into the theme...:bglasses:
John .....Miller doesn't own it anymore. But hey look here http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/showflat.php/Cat/0/Number/434417/an/0/page/0#Post434417
Had a beautiful Black 1979 Trans Am with red interior a few years ago, I regret selling it would like to get another. Must be another survivor original car. Just a great driving car with tons of character. Loved the 16mpg on 87 pump gas.
I'd love to get a 1967 SS427 Impala 4-speed. I also really like 1970-1971 Torinos. With a 429 of course.
As soon as I purchase a house, I will get working on my other Pure Stock car. It needs a complete frame off restoration, but is a pretty solid and semi rare numbers matching car. It is a 1970 post coupe 442 with a 4-speed. Should be fun runnin that down the track, but I gotta work on my 4-speed drivin skills in the mean-time. Also want a late 40's to early 50's Ford panel truck as a parts runner or daily driver.
since it's "realistic", 68 H/O and 70 Formula Firebird RAIII. I've also toyed with the idea of a 70 Torino Cobra SCJ Drag Pac car a buddy has been back and forth on selling. bench, 4sp, 4.30 locker, ribbon tac. The most likely next car though will be a 70 442 post W-25 car the man pedal
A 1967 Mercury Cougar as long as it is a 4 speed. I would also consider a 70 Cougar Eliminator 351C 4 speed.
