Replacement body is a rusty, crusty, dented and mismatched 1955 pontiac chieftain 2 door post I got for cheap and either a old 40's pickup bed behind it or a flatbed. I'm gonna run rig style exhaust pipes out of the rear fender wells on the pontiac.

I like your style. I have an old '79 f250 beater/plow/yard truck that i cut the body off of..it's just a frame/drivetrain and a firewall/cowl to hold the dash and a small section of floor for a seat..lol. I had a 1940 chopped Chevy body i was going to mount on it,,but someone made me an offer on that i couldn't refuse. I need to do something..plowing in a blizzard with no protection kinda sucks..didn't think about it when i torched the body off..

I was actually trying to sell the 55 there for a while but the best offer I got was scrap price from an old man that straight up told me he just wanted the wind shield and was going to scrap the rest. He basically gets a free wind shield for his 55 Chevy and another classic car gets crushed.... what a great deal. :roll:

Not exactly 'street legal' but it rolls so smooth.


Someone send me a couple thousand dollars. Where's the Scooby-esque philanthropist to dish out the cash when you need him?

i was just saying i dont see it. speed aside, i coulda sworn it was a few points faster in the 60 but a couple slower at the 1/4 and less mph, i like passing power.. to me it kinda looks like a cheap maserati..ill have to look into em more i do need another ride.. i didnt mean to offend or anything, if you get one awesome. i fell in love with my benzy, i usually hate em too so i cant talk much.. first one ive purchased

1941 Pontiac Torpedo. 455 swap.







The track car 1989 Crx Si, gutted, b16 swap, building for turbo 62/62. Ported the head, +1mm valves, looking for around 600whp. Weighes about 1800 with me in it.
