I bought the car from the original owner with 46000 miles on it and drove it 1000 miles and the head gasket went out. Pulled the engine and resealed and honed it new rings and rocker shafts and new water pump. Rebuilt the transmission and resealed the differential. All new brakes,wheel cly(6) hoses,steel lines, SS lines in front, 68 trk master cly. New gas tank,hoses,steel 3/8 lines,rebuilt org fuel pump and org 2brl carb. Updated to a 100amp alt. which is mounted under the front left fender with easy to access charging pegs. Aluminum racing 69 Mustang radiator and fan shroud. SS lines from radiator to transmission. I made the whole exhaust system. The high heat paint fell off the headers(that sucked!) The header on the left has 24 different pieces. They were a LOT of work making them. 2 1/2 pipe all the way to the P-51 exhaust tips. The floor is new and covered in Dynamat, jute mat and new carpet. Interior is mostly original. I made the kick panels and the package tray. The seats were reupholstered with new oem matching material and reused the original vinyl. New wind lace and headliner. The roof was also dynamited (this is actually Stinger mat. I'm using Dynomat because most people know what that is) I painted all the window trim and I put new seat belts in (4). The wheels and tires have 7500 miles on them. They are off of a 2010 Dodge Challenger. I put a set of 450 spring coil overs in the front to lower it and still have a good ride. the original torsion bar set is still in use also.The rear has new Monroe shocks. The car has 54,000 on it and it's been my daily driver for 7000 miles. It is an on going project of mine, you know save up some money and do the next thing! I'm moving and it's not coming with me. I have over 10 grand in parts and the car. What's wrong with it? I think the windshield leaks on the right side and or the door seal (which it has all new seals on the doors) I was waiting to fix the leaks when the car gets painted because all the glass would have to come out.The front seat has a hole in the back where your belt would rub. I can here a small exhaust leak somewhere. The fuel pump leaks engine oil out the pivot shaft(it's the way it was made back then) The transmission has a very small leak at the extension housing.(I haven't had to add fluid in 7000 miles yet) There is a clunk under the right front that I can't find. I think it's the torsion bar doesn't have enough tension on it? I've been driving that way till I had time to find it. Is this car Perfect? NO. It is an unfinished project. So don't pick it apart. I may have missed something that I didn't think of so keep that in mind. It is a "as is car" You will have to arrange the pick up.
