<----------------Not a lot of fun to drive on the street but I do. Will be building a supercharged engine for it this spring and adding a 5-speed to make it more roadable.
Yep, for about 20 yrs now. Hopefully I'll be driving my old T coupe by next spring tho. Bled the brakes today, have to run a battery cable and hook up the gas line and I'll be able to take if for a test drive...
i have only had mine on the road for about 4 months but i see a lot of road trips and cruising in the future.
Bought mine without engine or trans, had a chevy engine in it, swapping it to Ford power, hoping to be able to make some passes sometime in January 09.
I have owned and driven it for 40 years. Not driving it right now because I am re- installing the original 2wd running gear and a fresh 454 to replace the 396.
This is my daily driver. A few years back, I got tired of losing value on my ride. I would sit in traffic and think there must be a better way. Rather than buying a new car and having it depreciate before your eyes. So, I built this '63 Chevy II. 4.3L V6, 700R4, power front disk brakes, V8 springs, multileaf rears, A/C, and some nice tunes. The traffic is must more barable.
Oh man, I am so sorry to hear this. My thoughts are with you and your family. Think only of the good times mate. Doc.

Bough in 85, started to drive it in 94, didn' t do the body work but about 90% of the rest of it. Still working on it
I own it outright... somehow I'm still paying for it though. Drive it everyday unless I'm on my skateboard or bicycle.
