The '58 arrived today.........some things GOOD.......many things not so much....... Motor seems to run strong..........transmission CRAP-O-LA!!! couldn't even back it into the garage, I'll have to 'arm strong' it this weekend. Body.....workable...... Floors.......none lots of rust along the drip rails......the rest is minor surface rust. going to take more work than I had hoped.....but We'll make her a swan !!
k...now i gotta go take pics of mine??? mine arrived on Monday ...(i think) mines got floors....but not so much in the 1/4's mine aint got a cool motor tho
I can just imagine your happy dance, seeing it finally parked in the driveway. Sweet, its got one of those Fred Flintstone braking systems. Good luck on the project!
She's sorta already p!ssin' my daily driver off....she took the double carport until I can rally some troops to help me push her back onto the lift to start disassembly !! I figure I'll end up trashin' the original tranny and settin' a new 700R4 in there. I already have the wiring harness and the disc brake conversion kit......but I'm thinkin' floor repair FIRST.
between the 2 of us...we could put together one shmancy ride good thing were so far away from each other
That first picture is a nice sight. Reminds me of my first car. I had a '58 Nomad with a 348, 3-Speed. Bill
ahh man that thing is nicee and will be very nice when finished. cant wait til we see some build thread on it. Great pick up 34!!
