Re: 67 Rebel SST
so things are starting to move finished up the electronic ignition tonight car seams to run a lot smoother .Earlier i was talking to Al down at control freak suspension i ordered there independent front suspension with rack and pinion power steering and 12' wilwood front brakes be here in about 5 weeks then we dig in
|
Re: 67 Rebel SST
That new suspension will give us a lot of room for a Late model Hemi or LS swap.........Just "Say'in".....This car will be the perfect Power Tour cruiser..................

Re: 67 Rebel SST
I love it....these cars are unique and different....which is what I like.
Congrats and enjoy. Dan |
Re: 67 Rebel SST
Dare to be different...those are beautiful cars. My old (RIP) phys-ed teacher had a blue one, white guts & a 4 speed.

Re: 67 Rebel SST
That Rebel is a really nice looking car and that red looks great.

Re: 67 Rebel SST
see as the car will have black rims and red calipers i was playing around with this idea of two black stripes down low on the body i actually seen this in the amc parts book in stripe section the jury is still out on them though...http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j7...pshr3b7s5h.jpg..http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j7...pshtebkyky.jpg

Re: 67 Rebel SST
IMO the stripes and rear lower 1/4 vent look a little "busy". I always thought that vent was cool and am surprised nobody ever incorporated it into other builds. That car like it is a great foundation from which to start; a car that solid is tough to find and still be affordable.

Re: 67 Rebel SST
Do what you want, but it looks 10X better with the current wheels than it will with the 17/18 staggered set up.
