Kiwi Connection

[70sFanBoy]

Hi I have just joined FBBO. About a year ago I got a box (shipping container) full of B-Body stuff (75&76 Cordoba's) Since then I have enjoyed driving, cleaning and improving them when and where possible ($$)
I have some plans for the 76 but would like to keep Orrigy the 75, as it is a really great survive car that now belongs to the wife!
One of the thoughts was to "upgrade" the smog motor (B series BB 400) with a 451 stroker kit to get some extra lazy horsepower and torque out of it. I'm not looking for a racer or strip machine just a heavy missile that can pass anything but a gas station. Anyway I am looking forward to reading more content on this forum.
Cheers
Jim

Welcome to FBBO from sunny Auckland

Couple of mighty fine looking machines you have there. I bet they are good to just cruise around in .....Hamiton for an ice-cream on a lazy Sunday.

How does one find a sea container with classic cars and parts in it?

It was probably meant to be filled with the finest of Columbian Coke.....but the manifests got mixed up I guess.....

Welcome from Alabama, you never have a problem with a Mopar wanting to pass a gas station, but finding gas that will run in them is sometimes the issue.

Welcome to FBBO from Ontario, Canada. A lot of those Cordoba's were built in Windsor, Ontario. Cool cars; I wondered what happened to all of them! LOL. Thanks for your pictures.
