    nice...chop it ...i had to say it
     
  4. If no hood, think W block and three duces. A little paint and drive the heck out of it......

    My two cents worth...for what it's worth...

    I hope you got the grille with it, the grilles are reeeal good looking.

    As long as you are taking suggestions...go with a nice tri power 389 and a 4 speed and paint it shiny black.

    Nice score, -Abone.

    ohh its got all the parts compleat car.
     
  8. Nice find! It looks like it's real solid. I agree with Flamedabone a 389 with 3 deuces would be the way to go. I like full fendered on these cars because the fenders have such nice lines. Give it a nice stance and drive the wheels off it!

    Nice project. so, why has it been sitting for so long? you have owned it all of this time?
    sounds like you want a convert - what make? not likely to get a straight trade but, good bargaining material. put ad in Classifieds here.

    I would put it back together,get it running.it's a cool project and will be worth alot more when the rite 35/40 comes along.and you'll have a cool coupe to cruise. don't see many poncho coupes

    What do you guys think about a 79 trans am 400 in the car paint the black fenders with dark green body ? ford 8 in rear with a 272 gear ? Also thinking about F.A.S.T fuel injection ? Had one of the inline 6 in a 68 bird as a teen.
