    Yeah, its an olds rear end, looks like just two bolts on side holding it on... rides pretty well with about 10 lbs of preasure in the tires... haha
     
  3. if your thinkin about a semi highboy....look up Strunk's 32 from the cincinnati area....their should be some pics floatin around...not a three window but it does have a killer caddy mill in it....The 70s were groovy....good luck...

    looks like a wheel cylinder is leaking, checking the condition of the rest of the system would be wise. It is a great looking ride.

    Am I the only one that would want to retain this stance??

    OK, obviously it needs a new chassis, but imagine it sitting like this with some 16x13 mag Halibrands, M&H slicks, and 15x4 front runners. I really dig the drag car vibe.
    BTW, congrats!

  20. I'd just put some radial white walls on it and leave it as is. Don't violate a survivor!

    Nice find! This may be helpful to others that find a 3Window and need to show the owner what a fair selling price is. Only flaw I see is the cut off hood flange on the cowl. Good luck with the build!
