I have come to the conclusion I will never finish this car so it must find a new home.
I will accept most any offer so if you are close enough come have a look.
The car has a 440 727 installed in it now. I put in a set of clutch pedals but haven't got
the Lakewood bell housing, clutch or a833 bolted in yet. Have the parts to do so.
Truck Dana 60 axle rebuilt with 4.10 locker.
All new rubber seals for the car are still in the package.
Long ram manifolds and carbs need gone thru and installed.
Car has been rewired and was on the road when I took it down to do some paint work, interior, glass and weatherstrips to make it nicer to ride in.
I have new side glass uninstalled and original front and rear glass to go back in.
Seats have been recovered. Carpet and headliner not installed. Door panels not
built yet but have all the materials.
Radiator has been recored. Body was off frame and frame was blasted and painted.
Bottom of car is blasted and will need a couple spots repaired and paint.
I parted out another car and have many extra parts to go with along with factory service manual.
8000.obo. I have over double this invested. Hope someone can finish it up. I am motivated
to sell.

Auto all the way, youll need the torque multiplication to get that boat out of the slip. Thatll be a slick ride. Also those long rams are made for torque under 3000 RPM. Who wants to shift at 3300 rpm? Oops, thought it was a question..so here is a question: Would you part with those rams?
 
Has this one sold? I think it would make a really cool street machine. I'd have a big shifter sticking up out of the floor for the A833 and have a blast driving it on the Hot Rod Power Tour.
