    The Mav is finally finished!!:bananaman I want to give a big thanks to all the great folks on this board for your extensive help and advice throught this project. It made the job much easier!

    The last thing was ...I got my new Magum 500s, tires and my Mav center cap decals from Dan (sweet!) put on yesterday. This car started life as a 6 cylinder vinyl top car but it's far from that now!(y) Enjoy the pics. Click on the link as it should work!

    Also a short list of things done to the car:

    6cyl to V8 swap
    Leading edge of roof replaced due to rot from the vinyl top
    Grabber hood lip repair
    Complete 4 to 5 lug swap
    Entirely new interior
    - Bench to bucket swap
    - including 2 wasted Grabber high backs that I reupholstered
    - Dyed 2 Grabber door paned inserts and armrests
    - Installed guages: tach, and multi guages
    - Converted car from column shift to floor shift

    Stripe Kit and new Grabber Orange basecoat/clearcoat
    Hours of body work, complete with new metal
    - New metal behind both rear tires
    - Fixed various dents and dings

    All new rubber: Weather stripping, hood to cowl ect.

    That's about it but it's been well worth it and I hope to see all of you at the next round up!!!


    Rock on,
    Josh

    do you have your photobucket site settings as "public" or "private" (needs a password to view).
