Here are a few highlights of my build and current status.

You can follow the rest of my build at http://s1270.photobucket.com/profile/lzoesch/index

Ive taken a ton of pictures, some are useless and dont know why I snapped pictures of them. Also a few blurry

 

Here are a few more

Should have taken off the dash, and pulled everything out before painting the interior, but I had to drive the car to the booth I was renting out. Didnt have a trailer :/

 

Lookin' goooooood! gonna have that mav ready in time for the big mav/comet show in May!?

 

Hoping Depends if I can find a 9" for decent price. Front end is already rebuild with Polygraphite kit. Just need a motor & rearend / glass and Im ready to rock!!

Hoping to have all the seals, and ready to paint in the next 2 months. Going to Seattle this saturday for business, and Ill be over there for a month.

edit; A month of saving money, and buying parts

Also need to fab the dash, get gauges, and finish the wire harness I am building.

My highlights......

 

Right on! Sounds like you got a bit of work cut out for you! But doable still! Should be pretty sweet when your done. And watch for a 9 inch rear while out this way. They seem to show up pretty cheap on craigslist lately. im sure you already have somebody in mind for exhaust but if not and your out this way, let me know. Got an fantastic shop I work at. Grandparents owned and operated for 40 years now. Done quite a few crazy exhaust sytems for the hot rodders and such!

 

Common, lets keep the build progress / old builds going. I, and others are eager to see the builds

 

here's some pics of my build in chronological order:

 

Looks good, I dig the color

 

I dont have many build pics, cause they were al on 35mm film back then. Heres a few I scanned long ago.

First 347 stroker going in


about ready to fire it up, adjusting the valves


Time for a 9"


Then got it painted


Blew the yellow motor and next one was gray with some go fast juice


Blew the gray motor and onto Blue, not a stroker this time


changed the grill and headlight conversion, took this pic fo Haggerty when I insured it

 

Ok... I'll play... Looked like this in 1990 when I painted it this color. Then did floor pans and subframe connectors in 2007. Figured "what the heck" dont care for the color anywhoo.... Tore it down, Stripped the paint. Did some rust repair on the body...

 

Now it looks like this...Allmost ready for paint...
