Find any funny white powders down the back of the seat? :lol:

by **RedRaven** » 13 Dec 2007 9:55

by **dave-r** » 13 Dec 2007 9:57

She will be blaming me if it still hurts.

by **RedRaven** » 13 Dec 2007 9:59

Eddie...what do you think of the video lad??

by **Eddie** » 14 Dec 2007 20:21

Cool, you bought that car Wayne?

by **dave-r** » 14 Dec 2007 21:24

Yes he did. I wanted first lick of the drivers seat but Wayne went and sat on it first.

by **Eddie** » 14 Dec 2007 22:42

Ah Wayne! To deny Dave that, is well,, EVIL!! :lol:

Congrats Wayne! She's a beauty,(The car not Kate Moss, I like Britany err Holly I mean) :mrgreen:

Well bought! Enjoy this one too.

by **patrick** » 15 Dec 2007 6:17

Nice buy Wayne! Love to see those 72+ E-bodie's. They kick ass too! :thumbsup:

I keep hearing more and more, they're built a lot better than the 70-71 model's. With the 72 to 74 year's, they got some kink's out. :s003:

You have two nice car's there, Wayne.

by **Eddie** » 16 Dec 2007 13:39

Wayne can you give us some specs of the car? Engine. transmission, ect ?

Well the lump is a 440 with a holley street avenger...

the car was originally a 318...

the box is a 727....

Interesting history too..

I have a written piece of paper from a sheriff in the us who says that the car was found abandoned and then sold!!!

Very cool Wayne! You gotta love the history too! How does it run?

by **RedRaven** » 16 Dec 2007 20:28

Well it needs work no doubt..some rust here and there..some new metal around the roof etc..

But before she was stripped she ran like a crazy...pro street style!!

by **Eddie** » 16 Dec 2007 20:33

Great! Sounds like it doesnt need any mechanicals. How is the trim? around the windows, doors, bumpers, rear tailights, headlight buckets. front grill?

by **RedRaven** » 16 Dec 2007 20:43

Dude she is completely stripped block and tranny out...glass... interior..engine bay all out shes a rollin chassis..alot of work...but I see it as a lot of work already done for me!! :thumbsup:

by **Eddie** » 16 Dec 2007 21:18

Well, now is your golden opportunity to not only learn more but to create it your way! Thankfully, many of the trim parts I spoke of are now available as reproduction, with the front grill to follow soon from what I hear on the 'grapevine'! Have you thought about converting it into a Shaker car? Nothing is as exciting I think! It does require about a 5k comittment. Kinda pricey, but hey the eye candy is as cool as a blonde,(Holly) :mrgreen:

, in a thong bikini with Slayer/Zep blasting thru the Fosgate! :thumbsup:

by **RedRaven** » 16 Dec 2007 21:45

I think I could live with a shaker hood!!

Yeah it's really cool Wayne, kids go nuts over my car. I have to beat them off with radio whip just to keep their sticky fingers off! :mrgreen:

(Of course you would HAVE to place a sixpack on it, which in thoery gives you better gas milaege because you only use the mid carb until you need the outboards, so do it Wayne) BTW, I wouldnt lie to you! trust me on this!! :s009:

by **RedRaven** » 16 Dec 2007 21:52

Im sold!!

by **Eddie** » 16 Dec 2007 22:17

Good to hear! Hey if Dave can go 11's in his so can you! :mrgreen:

by **RedRaven** » 10 Jan 2008 23:44

Tracked down an old owner of my 72, turns out hes the president of MMA UK cool or what...

Not the yellow one

by **dave-r** » 11 Jan 2008 10:26

You mean Tony had it? I though John Marsh built that one.

No Tony had my 70, Matt owned the 72 back in 94, he raced it a the pod!!

by **dave-r** » 11 Jan 2008 12:27

I never knew Matt had that car! I do know he had the yellow one (which he still has) but I thought the pink Aussie Charger he has now was the only other car he had.

by **RedRaven** » 11 Jan 2008 13:08

Yeah he told me he raced it at the pod, he met a guy there in 94 and bought it from him, raced it the next year. Its been in the UK a long time.

by **dave-r** » 11 Jan 2008 14:01

I am sure John Marsh had it at some point and probably fitted the 440.

by **RedRaven** » 11 Jan 2008 14:05

Could have been after Matt alright, I believe the 440 was a bit of a demon to go!!

Ive seen those six pack set ups for sale on ebay Dave priced at about $2.5k, what do you make of those Dave??
