tarafied1's 65 Coupe

[TB350]

Would she like an 08 Bullitt?

 

[tarafied1]

Maybe, she really wants a Black 07 Shelby GT with silver stripes. What ya asking for the Bullitt?

 

[TB350]

It's part of my Dads estate, the lawyers have it inventoried at 24k but I told them I thought it a bit high. Could probably get close to 20k. Car is down in Fla right now. Was my Dads Toy so its got like 30k miles and fully loaded. 5sp nav etc.. I'll be flying down to get at some point soon. kip

 

[tarafied1]

Sounds nice

 

[tarafied1]

Worked on the right frame rail some more today. The more i look at it I think i am going to put the whole 68 clip on their.

 

[tarafied1]

had a chance to tinker with the 65 some today.
Driver's side tower, what's left of it anyway

The outer frame rail is pretty solid on the driver's side. I'm going to try and keep it attached

I cut off all the rot from the inner frame rail

Ran out of Oxygen on the gas axe. I'm going to look into some big tank rental. These little ones don't last long. I guess this is a good stopping point for today.

Getting her done :thu

You ever decide what route to go on the shock towers?

[tarafied1]

I'm gonna put the 68's on there. I've got 'em.

:thu I'd do the same thing.

then the StangFix drag car can run a Big Block!!! but really maybe I will someday build a stroker out of the 351W I have... for now it's SBF!

Why not and go ahead and noth the shck towers while you are at it. The extra room is always nice!

 

[Fst Blk]

Now your talking. Drop those T/W heads on that 351w and you'll have enough torque you'll think you have a big block in there. eter

I might just do that!

Bill

yeah! that's not in the budget right now though

 

[Fst Blk]

I thought you already had both :shrug

the 351W is a bone stock 77 smog motor... no money to build a stroker. the CR is pretty low stock and it's not a rollor cam block. If I build it I'm going BIG! 427W!!!

 

[tarafied1]

I have all the 68 suspension, except the spindles. The 65 have different steering arm geometry IIRC, right?

 

[tarafied1]

I didn't get much time to work on the car but i did cut out part of the firewall on the 68 to use as a patch for the 65

all the new goodies on that engine look swell on it.. should help her as soon as you get a manifold on her
