my 70 barn find

I just read through all of this! Holy moly man! I thought my car was sick!

And what a story!

I LOVE your hood scoop man!

Who makes those hood hinges?
 
My body guy got the trunk lid perfect now he just has to do hood and make custom cowl

Is the gap too tight at forward end of the trunk lid? It looks like it'll be awfully close at the corners when opening/closing. Or are my eyes deceiving me?

He might not be completely done with it yet he has a 3/16 gauge he walks around with. He adds an grinds metal until he has his 3/16 gaps. I've seen his other cars....no worries 3/16 all day lol
 
sweet! What is your estimated timeline till it's painted and reassembled.
He broke the news to me a few weeks ago probably not til spring 2018. He told me he does not want to rush it. Plus the fab work takes time and we are doing more fab work inside of car also. Thanks for following. usaroadrunner

Sorry yo hear about your health USA, I keep hoping for good news and I'm sure you'll kick it. Your car is looking amazing, you'll have no problem racking up trophies with this one if you decide to show it.... Maybe burnout trophies as well:thumbsup:
 
I'm pulling for you Bro. This car is bad *** and YOU are going to drive it like you stole it, not built it!
 
Metal work is coming along nicely!

You are in my prayers my friend!
 
Keep rockin' on USARR, the car looks great and we are looking forward to seeing you burnin' the hides once it is done!
 
:thumbsup:looking very good nice job :thumbsup:
 
70 barn find

yes it is a sport satellite with the 318. im glad its a satellite cause i didnt want to molest a rr. gonna build it the way i want. plans are 2012 challenger srt8 silver with white vinyle top with rr satin white strips on hood, solid white interior with custom dash with either silver or white faced gauges. gonna have to stuff a dana under it for the big block HEMI. time to work some overtime.


Really great find!
Congratulations.
 
Never fear, the project will go on. There is an 11 year old girl, our daughter Emma the original Evil Scowl; she will make sure this car is done and ready for her 18th birthday. I will try to make it as long as I can to see it finished. Just ordered the whipple supercharger today. Will keep you posted. Thanks for the thoughts and prayers. Heading to bed, take care everyone. -USARR
 
Bless you sir. Give your girl, and your family our love and prayers. Randy and Lynn.
