70A I bought out of Texas back in December just about ready to ride.
Lookin Good Ricky, did you change engines?
Coral Sand and White, My favorite 57 colors.
Ron.
That is a truly great looking car. I had a Sunliner in the same colors. Beautiful
You must be a happy camper. That's a beautiful car. What do you have in it for an engine?
Beautiful. I especially like the body color wheels with the dog dish hubcaps.
I like it!
What a beauty!
Nice ride !!!!!!
:unitedstates:nice looking good luck racton
Love the car, love the color! HRD
No reply on what engine yet. For me that would make a perfect six cylinder, three speed car. Don't you hot rod modified guys start throwing rocks at me :003: :burnout:
I am hoping for a supercharged 312 Y block.
I agree, Jim....but I cheated...looked at some of his old posts.....427 4 spd was the plan.

I just pictured it as the perfect little car to cruise around town. But I guess if I had an extra 427 laying around I might have a different thought.
Right now its a 292 3 speed. Will be taking it apart this winter for a color change. and a 428 PI with a T-85 unless one of you guys want it before I start on it.
I know everybody has the right to do with their car as they please, but I hope you are kidding us. It is so nice as is.
Ricky, can you provide some info on the mechanical condition? Was it a ground up restoration or mechanically restored in some form? I've walked away from more then a few that were turds with a nice paint job, not saying this one is. I would consider mine a painted turd when I bought it, I knew what I was getting into, but everything was there and salvageable and the price was cheap.
its a really good car. Has had a couple of patches in the front floor pans. Nothing major. The paint is very nice, I color sanded and buffed it when I bought it back last December. I was told it was painted 4 years ago. It has a new Labaron Bonney interior, dash and garnish moldings have been painted, new steel wheels new tires and NOS hubcaps. I have the front end off the car right now and the motor is out. I just painted the firewall the color of the car and just had the inner fenders and core support and all the brackets Powdercoated. the car was an automatic and I just put a t-85 straight shift in it. bumpers have been chromed and all new emblems. I will be putting the motor back in it this weekend and should have it put back together in a couple of weeks. Detailing every piece under the hood takes time but it sure makes a big difference.
