When I brought it home
[IMG]http://i141.photobucket.com/albums




after 1 and a half hours of power washing and scrubbing





it has a 440 big block


It has not ran since 91 but I got her purring turkey day weekend.

It was made june of 66 so the name of the project has turned into El Diablo the devil car.

hope you all like the pics.

I take it you have a skippers hat to pilot that thing, lol. Probably takes a couple of tugboats to get her out of the driveway.

the New Yorker came with the slightly restricted heads but it will still be a beast of a motor.

I think a good metalsmith could hammer a new xB out of just the hood and trunk lid...

Nice find - will be a lot of work, but it looks like a very solid base.

Good luck!

(If he had one of those guys with the paddles or the funny flashlights to wave his arms around, he could probably land small aircraft on the trunk lid, Brian...)

It is huge. I have been workin on the brakes and while under there I have been lookin at how to bag it. Odd susp. So it looks easier to go with dro's but will work every angle for bags first.

I do like the anchor idea. I think I have one in the garage.

The box is around 12 foot long and this thing is 20. all trunk
