To follow up on this I ordered a Hurst installation kit with rods, swivels and transmission levers. After further investigation I discovered the bolt I was seeing up inside the hump in the tunnel was not a shift stop bolt. The Hurst shifters that Brewers converts are rebuilt OEM Hurst shifters...
Yes wait for warm weather. Still wash up the interior. Clean is clean. The car was obviously made to be on the strip at some point, and retro race car can look cool, but not a filthy one, that includes inside.
This was my thought too. I’d say something less that 230 degrees if your going hydraulic.
The better you make the heads the faster the car will be, everywhere. Don’t skimp there, and if you have some extra coin, that’s where you should put it.
Grime on it is from my cousin's coal furnace. Hesitant to wash the car till we get some warmer weather. Supposed to be in the 70's next week.
As far as the interior it only has some 80's looking bucket seats. No carpet, door panels are aluminum sheet metal, same with the dash and rear seat area...
Chevelle boys and Ford guys are going to watch their rides go to the entry level price range, because no matter how rare they claim it to be they made hundreds of thousands of those things back then. Younger GM boys like Camaros and G body cars. Younger Ferd owners want a modern Mustang and...
Clean it up. Put in a left taillight. Check all electricals from the bulkhead out to all systems. Check brake system from MC out & flush/bleed new brake fluid. Check steering & suspension from steering wheel out to the wheels. Replace with new tires. Safety is the key. Change oil, fluids, and...

Only...
I have not bought any of my cars in anticipation of making money on them. I buy them for the nostalgia and memories that they revive. Sure most have appreciated in value, but there are also costs involved in improvements and maintenance. They provide fun for me, by driving and maintaining them...
Yeah the longer wheelbase helps, the most part the B-Body ride quality
It's about freaken' Time MoPars get some real respect, value/worth
seems the resto-mods are selling for as much if not more than
some of the OE restored cars, a different demographic todays market
they like the extra stuff...
My old tired ride does not seem to have cooling side affects. Just like the clutch-cycling. That minor bump is in no way negative to the idle of a torquey 440. AC is a must. Classic Auto Air.
Looking for a front bench seat for my 69 Coronet. Really just need the frame but if it’s already covered, that is fine. Would love to have one with headrests similar to picture. Thank you. Bonus if it has a fold down armrest similar to second picture.
