I have a 500 thats apart and on hold until my new garage gets done.
Yes a 440 and the question is? Be side the obvious.

chasing the allusive garage space.. LOL
Everytime I think I am going to increase garage space the only thing I get is more stuff...less space

My space evaporated because we moved. The existing garage is filled with house stuff, tools, equipment etc. Supposed to break ground on the new unit soon? unless its further held up by the county.

I have a 500.
Has anyone used floors from this place? Mine needs at least the front floors and some other metal work.

I just looked up your garage again. Have you done much to it recently?

I finished up the interior, all chrome trim has been re-chromed, carper is installed, suede headliner was installed, plain custom dash with auto meter gauges was installed. Recently just cut an oil line somehow so I need to replace that today or tomorrow. Sadly I got rear-ended the other week, not horrible but somewhat noticeable on the bumper but with the insurance money I think I'm going to buy a new transmission since it's been needing a new one and since the rest of the car isn't the prettiest I figured the dent in the bumper will only give it more character. Ill try to upload some more pictures today when i get home from work if there is still some sunlight out.

Those panels look like Sherman panels I have used sherman panels when not available in AMD but since AMD makes 65 B Body panels I would use AMD much better quality.

Very interested in seeing pics of the dash you did. I want to replace the factory gauges in mine but the car has been at my brothers all summer and fall. This time of year it’s hard to get over there to work on it.

My brother just dropped mine back at my house. Unfortunately I have to kick the wife’s car out of the garage, at least for now. No salt yet in the neighborhood so I can drive it around here tomorrow, hi of 40. Lol
