Re: ROTTING MUSCLECARS

Crazy stuff...is it a '59 or '60?.
Can't say I'd put too much trust in that rollbar?.
Really love that extra hood w/ the scoop!.

Too bad that StepVan wasn't a bit newer and Chevy powered...just thinking of those 6-bolt converter TH400's!.

Re: ROTTING MUSCLECARS

is there any better feeling in the world than walking through the weeds towards the car you had heard about..

Re: ROTTING MUSCLECARS

Only the feeling you get walking through a field and stumbling across a sweet car you knew nothing about and the owner tells you to get it out of his hair.

Re: ROTTING MUSCLECARS

While looking for some photos for another thread I ran across these in my archive. These are vintage photos from the driveway of the guy I bought my 70 hemi Charger from 20 years ago. He passed away in a tragic accident last year.

I cant recall whether it was a 454 or 396 in the El Camino but it was an unrestored car. Behind it under a tarp was an original 1970 L78 Camaro (probably with an automatic https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif). Also in the yard was a 1969 hemi GTX with 17,000 miles. Colin recently acquired this car and sold it last year. Inside the garage was a 65 or 66 Sting Ray with a 327/365 horse engine. A friend of his has that car now. The Firebird had some bizarre 70's panel mural paint job. I dont recall what the drivetrain was, but knowing him, it was probably an SD455 as he didnt have any "normal" cars there. He had cars (including a 69 COPO Camaro) and engines all over the place. I'm sorry I didnt take more photos at the time.

Re: ROTTING MUSCLECARS

Looks like that Corvette was an old gasser. I see a solid front axle under it. What a crime.

I recall a 1954 Kaiser Darrin in high school that was butchered to have a 283 Chev drivetrain installed. Very fast but what a waste of a very rare car. Nice conversion, but ragged to death by the second owner and junked.
