Default 70 Big Block Full cage Pro Street Style Project

Ok this is My other Project.

70 model I picked up in a trade for one of my big 4x4 about 15 years ago! Got about $500 in the trade back then and made about $4000 in cash on the trade so I was doing great on this one! So I then send it to my best bud since grade school who puts a full cage and complete rolling back half car! Great deal too since it was freee other then the cost of materials and parts.

So I roll it off the trailer could have put brake lines, fuel lines and driveshaft in and drove it!

But NOOOOOOOOOO I say I want it perfect first so I tear it all down for paint? So next thing you know it gets left outside and becomes a rust collecter!

So a few years back I decide to take it have it dipped so now she sits with DP 40 all over ready for me to do body work and start bolting back together and make her scream again.

Pics coming soon

Yeah post some more pics and give us some more specs on the car and drive train.

Maybe try using photobucket so that your pictures load up on the page when people read it, makes it easier for people like me to see them because i can open the web page and let it sit while the pictures load with very slooooooooooow internet!

Look forward to reading about it!

Haha, goto photobucket.com and create an account. Once you upload your pictures to your photobucket account there will something that say IMG Code. Copy that and Paste it in here and when you post your reply your pictures automatically show up.

It looks something like

[ IMG ]http://i1229.photobucket.com/albums/ee469/Sudstoy/IMG_0688.jpg[ / IMG] without the spaces i entered
