This car is being built to be a street/strip/car show/cruiser type car. It is for sale as work is being done. I bought it a year & a half ago. I've been slowly but steadily collecting parts for it. It won't be a Barrett-Jackson quality car, but hopefully a nice enjoyable non budget buster. First pics are when I picker her up in Greer, SC & when I got her home. Nov 2015

Some of the parts I've collected. Not shown is a 8.75 rear sourced from ne of the 68 Plymouth Furys I parted & a 440 engine from a cop car.

New front floor pans from Year One. I called them & they said they where the same for the wagon. No one makes pans for the rear so the resto shop is going to fab some from a C body car he has been using for parts

This car gave up its 8.75 rear for the wagon project. Not an exact fit. Looks like about an inch shorter. Cross that bridge later.

This car will give up is Magnum 500 wheels to the wagon project. This 68 Fury is for sale. I haven decided if I want to fix or part this one yet. I'd love to fix it just too much going on. And it needs a lot. I have a parts car for it also

He's having to work on it outside the shop as his shop was full if old cars. Mostly old C body cars. He does very nice work. He cut the passenger side pan out yesterday May 25th. Very pleased with the work & time
 
Great work with the wagon! I'd be interested to see pictures of any of the c body work he has goin on if you can snap a few pictures.
He's had several threads over on FCBO. A 70 Fury GT & a 68 Charger are the recent cars he's finished. Under the scrrename Wollfen

The passenger floor was welded in today. And he got a patch for a bad spot in the pass rear door jamb.
 
His name is Gary. He's from Australia. Go's by the screen name Wollfen over on FCBO. Also there is Sautered (Dale Sauter) in Greenville. He has some nice cars too
 
Thanks, if you talk to them tell them that there is a cruise in at the Harley dealership in Winterville this Thursday at 6pm for bikes and classic cars. I will be there with the gold 67 R/T. Hope to meet some fellow Mopar guys.

While waiting on some rear floor pans Gary started on the rear side glass. The driver side was leaking bad, but was caught in time & only surface rust in the channel. He cleaned & primed it. Also the pass side was showing some signs it too was leaking so he is going address that too.
