The build has always been the more enjoyable piece for me and learning about new cars. This build was probably the most fun. I have always wanted one of these cars ever since HS when I saw my first one in about 1978. I learned a great deal from this board and had some help from some local members. But now I need more room in the garage to move on to the next project.
The entire engine is new so I won't break down every new part. It is a Chevy 350, 4 bolt main, 10.5:1 compression, lumpy cam (I have the specs if you want), aluminum 202 heads, 6500 hi-rise Pro Comp manifold and 650 cfm Eddlebrock Carb. It has ceramic coated shorty headers that lead into dual Flowmaster 3 chamber exhaust system. It has the standard 901 side shift trans. It leaks a few drops here and there. It has new clutch and throw-out bearing. I have no issues with the trans other than the small annoying drops on the floor which I hear are common. Just have not replaced the O-ring in the cable which is where it is leaking from. It has brand new brakes, rotors, bearings and seals. It has brand new struts and shocks. It has BMW calipers on the front. It is the standard 4 lug with Riviera wheels and brand new tires. (I elected to stay with a sleeper look). The paint is Dupont black with no toner that is clear coated and polished There is no rust although I had a small quarter size piece on the pass floor board. It was grinded down and glassed. Hell hole is perfect... no rust. The cooling system was patterned after race and boat applications so it is not an Renegade set up. This baby does not get past 170 degrees. It has a Mezziere remote mount water pump 55 gal p/m. It has full size hoses and the water neck is mounted on the thermostat housing. Interior wise it is all new including door panels. Tach is converted for the V8 set up. It has a center console with Autometer guages, water temp, oil pressure and volt meter. There are other things I would like to do to it but the more I do the less chance I will sell it for what I need for the next project. I will consider all offers over 11k. If you want more pictures or have questions feel free to ask or PM. You can call me if you like as well. 909/ 471-2432. Attached image(s)
