I think I saw that car on eBay. Great looking car

We have the car home and it's much cooler then I had anticipated. Now the sheet metal work will begin. Stay tuned...For another Detroit Muscle build thread.

My friend just finished the restoration of his B7 blue 440+6 4 speed 70 GTX these pictures were taken during final assembly.

My son picked up a 70 GTX 440 6 pack car. So we figured to join the site for some tips as we work on the car.

First of all. NICE find. These types of finds are really getting fewer and harder in between. 2nd. I understand the "Its only original once" thought. But in my humble opinion? "Patina" doesn't work as well for Muscle cars. Older classic truck builds. Yes. But a '70 440-6 GTX? That look just says "Save me. I want to fly and shine."

Just my opinion. I could be wrong.

That's funny, I think that they were installing the front end parts when they took the pictures!

WOW, That's cool man!! I would be very interested to talk with your buddy about these cars. I know of a handful of B7 cars and I'm very curious on options and parts sources.
