I might take this out for a spin tomorrow, what do you all think?

[Ariana]

Believe it or not, this car actually runs!
It'll give up a lot of parts for the project

Ut oh, here comes the property owner....

"KEEP YOUR HANDS WHERE I CAN SEE THEM!!"

Nice.

Be careful with those late B body mirrors.
If they're from that Cordoba- they mount totally different than a 71-74 mirror.

Suddenly I crave red wine vinegar chips.

 

[YY1]

There was a restaurant in a Tampa mall that served fresh, hot potato chips with shredded (IIRC) gorgonzola and a drizzle of balsamic vinegar.

They were to die for.

If you bring this wreck back it will make for an epic story. Gonna be a helluva lot of work though.

I know, and I'm looking forward to it!

That sounds... incredible. Is it still there by any chance?

Lmao they're so good, I highly recommend them

I'm not sure.

We have a more local place that has homemade chips on their "side item bar".

I somewhat jokingly suggested they should serve them with cheese and balsamic.....and they sounded very interested. Been back a few times but never saw them.

If I'm ever in the area (I wanna go to Universal one day), I'll have to see what I can find

 

[Ariana]

I'm back!!
We've begun cutting off the smashed end to replace it. Moving the replacement rear end was difficult, but we did it!

My friend and I found this in a junkyard a while back, initially intending to part it out. However, we decided to fix it up instead! The engine runs, and we have at least most of what we need to fix it up, so why not repair it? I'll keep you all updated on the progress!

Exactly like that......hell yeah. Needing video of the event.

UPDATE: We removed the differential and rear window and removed all the parts inside it that we plan to put back on. Unfortunately, my phone is not a good one, so I only have a picture of the differential. More pictures and a walk-around video will follow tomorrow

 

[Ariana]

Hello again! Here is the youtube video I promised!

 

[xs-ivv]

Great project. Looks like you will have a really nice car once it is all stitched back together!

 

[Ariana]

Hey, everyone! I have an update on the Franken-runner project. We made more cuts to the Satellite and put the Road Runner end on an A-frame! Here are some pictures and a video of my friend explaining what we're doing!

 

[moparedtn]

Well, this sure should prove interesting...

 

[YY1]

As long as you're doing all that metal work, you could go cut the mirror mounting areas from those Cordoba doors.

That would make mounting the mirrors on that Satellite a LOT easier.

 

[threewood]

Wow, looks like a hell of a project!
