The 69' is on the road.
« on: April 21, 2008 - 09:13:41 PM »
All legal like.  :bigsmile: Last time it was registered was 1989. I tried not to buy this car three times. :screwy: Then I tried to sell it.I've decided to give it to a good buddy real cheap.He'd never be able to get a car otherwise.I've put some time into it. Not much money. Mayby 500 bucks.Including the new rubber.It runs pretty good.Needs some stuff.But now it's officially a "driver" again!!  :clapping:Don't let me sit around with parts ready. I've puttered around in it,But not like this. Mayby bring the front end back up a bit. Rear qrtr. patches after the 73' is back. Now where's that 440... :bigsmile: Anybody got a bumper? :poopoke:  :wave:

:iagree: What's the easiest/best way to lower it in the back?  Everthing is original.8 1/4 rear.

Extruded lowering blocks and new u bolts will lower it, but don't use the cheapy cast ones. :nono:

Thanks.I'll find something.
I'd also like to put the front disc brakes off the '73 E-body. Can I do that?  4 wheel drums aren't quite good enough for out here.

Thanks All!! Sure is fun! :swaying:  I'm having a blast with these old cars. Now my bro. is on a '70 Charger thing  :screwy: He's been teasing me for some time with the idea of a "company vehicle" I think he's "seen the light" I'd like to do a '70 satellite<GTX thing myself. But a Charger... O.K. Dark green with magnums,black tail stripe... :blah:

You guys all know I'm nuts!    :smokin:

If your buddy does buy it make sure he joins up hear so we can keep an eye on it.  The notchbacks are a sweet little ride. Got their own look aswell. :2thumbs:
