going to be a while before someone tops this restoration.......

from this:



to this



in 18 months.......

 

Wow! Ford Granada headlights on a vette. What an imagination that builder has! I wonder if it has Ford Power under the hood?

The hood ornament is a nice touch.

 

I guess he can clear the airport runway faster with the new snow plow behind the vette.

 

Good call on the headlights. I was staring at the picture and couldnt figure out what they were from before I scrolled down and saw your comment.

 

Who ever built the 4x4 should be tied to the bumper and dragged down the road.

 

Sombody had a lot of extra fiberglass and qualudes when they did that car!!!!

 

I don't know about qualudes. Acid maybe. :idea2:

 

I wonder if it's a re body ? LOL :TU:

 

I kinda like the before.......with some 22's it would look great.........NOT

 

I remember taking a tech call at TA from a guy that wanted to pull out the tri-power 427 from his `67 Corvette and put a Buick 455 in it for the extra torque. I'm pro Buick but I had to advise against that.

 

I get itchy with the thought of all that fiberglass work to mold that front light assembly ...

 

He had to switch it back his cheap gold chains would rust durring the winter.:laugh:

 

How about a link to the in-process resto pics, being taken off the bronco chassis, cutting off the custom front clip to make way for the aftermarket replacement front clip etc.??o No:

 

Good example of what acid would do to you in the 70's! LOL

Soooo, are we talking a re-body or what? uzzled:

At least they had the sanity to remove the stinger hood first.

 

YEAH!!! _uckin' eh rights, eh!

 

there is not a single place to see the resto, but they took the car down to just the tub, bought a frame, and built it from there.......

 

????????I watched the other videos linked there, don't think there was much of anything left of that original car.. when you say tub, do you mean bath tub? like made out of fiberglass like a shower stall? What did they salvage. That has to be another body......

Think it was his ex wife's car?

 

firewall, floorboards, rear bulkhead, windshield frame, and doors .........




let me know if you can see the pic .....
