Put new engine in after previous owner had done damage to the head and cams.
It sat for a year, so I put all new brakes on it, and of course tires.
This car is an animal; other than the heat issue 95% of them had, it was great. Once I fixed the heater problem, the car was great regardless of the weather.
New rad and ball joint after that.
It needed new bushings, but I just kept going since I was planning on them in the spring, once I put my other car and bike back on the road.
CAR IS NOW NOT GOOD. New Years night the car lost control and hit two guard rails, and 3 outta four corners of the car got hit. It drove me out and home and around still. Starts drives and runs like it always had. THIS CAR IS AMAZING, I can't find another with the body it had.
PUT WINTER TIRES ON IT AS I only had two on the front, and now I lost a classic.
If I would not get in trouble, I would still drive it; fenders, hood and all banged up.
UPDATE! took the hammer and crowbar to it. Looks almost back to mint except for rash and a broken signal on the left with the hood not quite fitting properly.
The rear end pushed in at least 2-4 inches, but all suspension and geometry are great.
Best damn car I've had. Ill keep it on the road instead of getting my other car into the snow.
