    Another 41 ! Yea. My two door fast back was my first old car when i was 18. Back in 2001. 322 nailhead. 700r trans. I added in a few years back. Orginal rear end. Used the same shifting linkage off the column. So looks stock from the all over till you lift the hood. rebuilt everything under the body and left the body with the pitena look.

    Taking the slow road to china! But she will get done. Here is a few pics of the dash and garnish molding and the new engine turned glove box and instrument surround. All new redone gauges.

    Update...
    Had to repo the car back from one body shop. Now my new painter and body shop are kicking ass on her. She's in final block now. And the color has changed for the last time.

    Looking Fantastic. I hope mine turns out 1/2 as good.

    Do you have any of the earlier pictures saved? They are showig up as dead. We are about 18 months out from the chop on mine, but it's always better to plan ahead.
