Welcome. create a forum in the members restoration and add pics! Everyone LOVES PICS!!!!

Im actually true Phoenician. Born and raised in South Phoenix. Great point! And I believe the same, if she wants it, likes it, helps build it. She will appreciate it WAY more..... Can't wait to see pictures....

Coming from the daughter in the daddy daughter restore. Please keep an open mind to what SHE wants in the car. If SHE doesn't want all original, be open to the idea and not shut her down immediately. When my dad and I started our project, I was 10 years old. We built it together, slowly...

So I have disc brakes in the front already, now I want disk in the rear. I want to move the battery box to the trunk. I'm currently looking into materials for the interior. I am custom making the center console because my car has the A/C vents under dash and I want to change the look of it...

RIGHT!!! In my case, because I am not a pro, I will measure 5 times and cut 10.. LOL

Found out that I need to make a custom plate to go between the new seats and the floor. This should be interesting.... LOL

I hope it turns out as good as I imagine.

So guess what?! I found bucket seats!! All electric, heated (which in AZ you dont need) but they came out of a 2005 Jaguar. Its going to be some work, BUT, we are optimistic about it. We picked the car up last night from the shop that was making custom mounts for it. Now its time to hide it...

awesome work and thanks for the pictures! I am debating on gauges I want to put in my car, they look nice. And the bucket seats is something I also want to do, but not sure how I want to go about it.

Every car has potential, as long as you can see it in your heart. Cant wait to see progress pictures...

All of this work Im doing to Licorice and one thing has me reserved and feeling guilty. And thats how my dad will react. He is BIG on original and when I first built my car (at age 16) she was all original. Now that Im using my money and not daddys money, I have changed a few things and only...

Nice! Thanks for sharing that information and the pictures. Its awesome to see that others who "step outside of the box" when it comes to restoring cars.

Thanks for the idea, as far as how much "fabbing" lol, we will do what we have to do. I was thinking of something out of a newer magnum, charger, 300? When it gets to that, I will put the seats and console from my magnum, JUST TO SEE, how it looks and fits. If I like then I will buy from...

Here are the before and after of the passenger side header. If you can tell what was done.

So far we had to customize the NEW headers in order to fit the passenger side, had to notch out the K member for the front sump oil pan. Make brackets for the motor mounts and the tranny mount. I am a firm believer in not cutting or welding on the body or actual frame. (the k member I can...

I posted pictures in the members restoration section if interested.... thanks

Thank you! How many modifications did you have to do to put the 8.8 in it?

4L60E Tranny. Custom making tranny mount, but do not need to cut anything to make it fit!

Some of the items I have bought for my car! and a custom made emblem because we are putting an LS1!

So here I am. Moving from the welcome wagon forum (which wasn't too welcoming I might add), over to Members restoration page. I did get some positive thoughts and wishes and good advice, and thats very appreciated. But man, let me tell you. These grown adults are worse then little kids at...

moving over to members restoration so I can post some pictures. I appreciate all the positive advice and thoughts! look for me there! As far as my member ID is concerned. Licorice is the name of my car because she is Red, 72 is the year... And my husband does VERY little to the car with out...

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR KIND WORDS!!!! And exactly what you have posted, is the main reason why we are doing this.... THANK YOU!!!!!!!

We are using a 4L60E The engine is as far back as it can go, sits perfect. Only cutting we had to do was on the K frame where the oil pan could sit lower, (I didn't want the engine at a high angle) the transmission wasn't an issue. The hump in the floor isn't an issue at all, which is...

Thank you. We ended up buying an oil pan with front sump, beautiful actually. And fits perfect. Also we have had a tranny mount and motor mounts brackets custom built. After they are finished I will post pictures. Im super excited how its all coming together nicely! Thank you for the...

At this time no, but its an option. I still want to go back to Hemi, but looking for a sweet deal. I am itching to drive my car after 10 years of rebuilding her. Its always an option and I am keeping an eye out for the turbos... :burnout:

Funny, Just have to say I dont have *****, I am a woman. Have positive thoughts and positive actions will follow. Have a fantastic day! And thank you for the advice.:D

I like this, I will let my husband know. Thank you

Hi everyone. I know this is a touchy subject and I appreciate the advise, and even the negative comments. I was raised Mopar or No car. I get it guys, why put a chevy in a dodge? I have the same questions, but dollar for dollar, LS engines are way cheaper and with a little work, they can...

Hi everyone🤗. I am a new member and so glad that I found you. A little about my project. I have owned this car since I was 9. Built it, drive it, wrecked it, started restoring it about 10 years ago. Got married to my childhood friend and adopted his son, and then we had 2 kids together...
