I took possession of this 76 in early September as a poorly repainted roller with three motors in various states of undress. The best of which looked to be halfway built, fresh on one side and left open on the other which had badly pitted the cam. As it turns out this is probably a good thing since it won't be a mystery as to what is in it when I get it all back together and can build it to suit. Here are some initial images of the car after I pulled everything out to have a look and take inventory of all the parts and or lack thereof. The planned next step is to strip it right down and media blast it to unearth the issues, order panels and start piecing it back together.
The goal is to revert back to the original light ivory.  Fiberglass matt and I'm assuming POR-15 is covering some nasty stuff.   2.0 with jugs that were bored out to 4"    Structure is overrated. I'm sure this is much lighter without all that fiber reinforced tape that was there   |
