Since I don't officially have possession of this beast yet, I'll keep it light on the details. I saw this one a couple years ago in a storage facility that a few of our club members use, and saw that I knew the owner. I inquired at that time if it was for sale, and of course, it wasn't. Fast forward to yesterday morning, I got an email from his son that it was going up for sale in Flint this week! I immediately called the owner and set up a time to check it out. After about 30 minutes of inspecting and crawling on the floor, I sealed the deal. Factory AC, Air Poise suspension (was converted to regular shocks), power windows, brakes, steering, and some other stuff I'm sure I don't understand yet. What a project car!!:Brow: Those are NOS drums there... It is actually supposed to be a Blue Mist car...it has had one repaint in a slightly darker color. The underside of the trunk lid has the original paint on it:
Too bad the twilight turquoise 71 has to leave the garage to make roomou: I love the feeling of buying a car:grin: :grin: :grin: :grin:
tubbed, 8.2:1 572" Tomahawk TwinTurbo with alky injection running pump 87 (or E85) .... Im gonna guess 8.73 @ 158
Boy, you don't even give us Flint area guys a chance, do ya?????? Scooped it up before it even made the trip! Good luck with it......and please put me in line for a ride!!!!:TU:
The car would still weigh 7000 lbs!!:grin: One piece at a time...I don't see myself taking the whole batch in at once. I would need to take out a second mortgage on the house. The car comes with a few nice used chrome parts, too. Some of them will just have to live with the "Smartin Touch" for a while:grin: Thanks! I could hardly sleep last night...
As soon as I heard he was going to advertise it for sale in Flint, I knew I had to scoop it up before tomorrow!!:Brow:
