I'll think about lending you some of it, but you have to promise you won't turn it into a rat............................

Nah the chop top would be a little too extreme. I was thinking maybe grafting an oval window or better still I can donate the big window from my 74
...... The elephant tail lights would go a treat

flames Pat would be WICKED!
would get a spare k & l beam, other wheels, and swinger axel gear to do mods on to lower it, and rod it, but keep the original parts in storage for
future. Same goes for engine.
BUTT... would u really be willing ot drive it on a road? would u risk it?

I would leave the exterior as is , but install a 1000w stereo with 4 amps, 2 subs and twiddle knob
The motor would have to make way for a turbo Suby.
I'm such a bad man
