Hell yeah we've got muscle here.Nice pick for a project "Harvest". My first fast car was a 67 Cougar XR7 with a 351 cleveland in it.It was automatic on the floor C4.That sucker moved.Bought it for 150.00. I had three xr7's all together 2 69's and the 67.
My first true muscle car was a 70 chevelle ss396.Bored out to a 401.It was anice car.Had allthe good stuff.Muncie rock crusher tranny.4:11 posi, 4 spd,cowl induction, tach in the dash.Original ss wheels.AND......it was a bench front seat..rare.
I drove it for 2 yrs.Blew the motor and sold it for the price I paid for it 2800.00.
Then I went Mopar.lol.I bought a 65 sport fury convertible for 250.00.Drove it home..lol.It needed alot but I did it.Rebuilt motor and tranny. 383..727.Unfortunately I soldit before the body work was done.I found a parts car for it with the supercommando engine for 350.00.Sold that too.
My husband has a 57 Merc hes rebuilding and we have a 67 Mustang 6 cylinder and a 70 comet with a 302.
I'm not gloating just excited to find another weed grower that also loves cars. I didn't pay a lot for any of my cars.The buys come along..the key is to not wait when they come along..
Can't waitto hearmoreabout the project...peace BL

Harvest

Mecum Auctions is one of the largest auto auction brokers in the country/world.

Locally some of their auctions appear on the "HDTV" cable channel - an HD-only channel.

Check out the Cobra on their front page that sold for $7.25 million. Carroll Shelby was there to autograph the hood for the new buyer. This car was one that Shelby himself raced in 1965.

Heck - frame-off restorations of Chrysler muscle cars can go for as much as $250,000.00 if it's the right car and equipment (original), rarity, etc.

Awesome car there man! I love that year. My favorite is the 66. I have '65 'cuda, that I am about to start working on again. It was a project back in '98 before I left for the service. Can't wait for pics!!!

Was that the one with the headlights that had a mechanical cover that went over them when off?

Damn Ijust wrotea history of all my cars and deleted by accident..DOH!!
I share your love of muscle cars.First was a 67 Cougar xr7 with a 351 cleveland in it. C4 on the floor.It flew especially for only 150.00.Those were the days..lol.I like Mopars too.I owned a couple 65 sport fury convertibles.Both were purchased for under 400.00.I drove one of them home.

My most popular car I had was a 70 chevelle ss396.They were bored out to 402 that yr.It had factory ss wheels, cowl induction,tach in the dash,muncie 4 spd, 4:11 posi, a bench front seat which was rare.I bought it in 1981 for 2800.00, blew the motor two yrs later, and sold it for 2800.00.
The closest thing my husband and I have to a muscle car now is a 70 Comet with a 302 init.All original.Good luck with your project...peace BL

LOL all good, yeah i been loving muscle cars since i was little, my pops has done alot of work on cars and motorcycles so i kinda came up around it, but most recently my buddy finished his 68 dodge dart, and i fell back in love. so ive been searching for a 67 since then, as soon as i find the right car and price ill grab it and start throwing money and time into her. anyone got good websites for project cARS or barn finds?

Sabudda · 02-05-2010, 03:28 PM

My first car, uh-real car, was a 1971 Ford Torino w/a 351 Cleveland and a 771 blower on it. I wrecked it in a horrible, firey crash.
I then tricked out a '70 Cobra Jet Torino. (429 SCJ is my fav engine) I wrecked it too...
Won't even say what happened to the '70 Cyclone. (Also 429 SCJ.)
I've been drivin' the same giant Caddy for 18 years now. I slowed down, I'm kinda addicted to breathin'.
