Met one guy who had a fiberglass Willys with a blown Chevy engine - he was just starting to finish off the interior and explained in excruciating detail how he was going to do the headliner. Met another guy with a really cool '55 Chev. He had bought it in 1967 - the guy he bought it from was turning it into a drag car, with radiused rear wheel openings and a tilt front-end. The car had no engine or transmission at the time he bought it. Shortly thereafter, a friend rolled a Charger with a 440 in it - the car was totaled, but the drivetrain was good, so he bought it. So he has a '55 Chev with a Dodge 440 and a 9-inch Ford rear-end. Very cool car. And he knows a guy who is building Matt's dream car - a Nissan Cube with rear-wheel drive and an LS9. Have a good day, everyone! |
