Very Cool! Is this an original restoration, Hemi car, shaker etc... ? Like your Mom tooled around town in a Hemi?
No.
Tawny gold Gran Coupe. 2 tag.
In 78' out of High School, I wanted a Cuda and so I began changing it.
My friend's Mustang was beating my 318 car and I wanted to whip his a$$.
I couldn't stand the beige interior. Or the Tawny gold. So I began a transformation.
In 79' I joined the Army. In 81' I returned from overseas duty.
While on PCS (post transfer) I drove the car to Ft. Campbell.
That is when I put in a 340 and a A/T.
When I ETS'd from the Army, I drove it home.
A year later, I had it in my barn where I rented and transformed it to a 4 speed after the A/T burnt out.
A few years later, I had it painted Imron black.
This was happening when the movie Phantasm was debuting.
Plate frame said..."No this is not a Dream"
It was like that until about 98' when I moved to Grass Valley.
Never drove it much during then.
Relationship went sour in 2000. I had the car completely apart in a shop.
So I put all the parts in a rent a storage, put the car on moving dolly wheels and let it sit in a field for almost 3 years.
Finally towed it home and it sat again for a few more years.
Money was tough days for me for along time back then.
Been at it for along time. Almost everything new or re-furbished.
i don't think there is one part on it I haven't worked on in the entire car.
