Project Sarge 66 Belvedere II

[BeepBeepRR]

This is the car I went to SC to pick up. Its in rough shape but hell, I wanted something to spend my time on. I just ordered both quarter patch panels for the lower quarters that are rusted badly. Also the trunk extensions. There will be more I need but this should get me started. The car got the name Sarge because on the way there we stopped to fill up the truck and I found a Staff SGT patch on the ground.. So I figured it was meant to be. Anyhow under the hood was a 318 Poly but now there is nothing. This is going to be a long project that I will probably be seeking advice on. I bought the quarter parts from C2C Fabrications. Dont know if anyone has used these panels before I was just wondering about fitment.

Most would say I am an idiot for buying it.. But Like I said i have nothing better to do. This will be the home of my 440.

All the glass and chrome is present. However the chrome is in the trunk. Missing both bumpers and backets. Need a bumper filler need floor patch panels and probably all of the rubber parts. Not to mention lots of interior stuff needed. Anyhow here is the start this will be a long ongoing project.

While slapping the mopar rally wheels on it i noticed the largest colony of mud dobbers I have ever seen..

Was thinking today after all is said and done. If I keep the with the Sarge thing. Maybe this color for the car. OD green gloss would be a very different color for this car. Since its a ho hum car and nothing will be original.. Just a cool color I think.

No reason to keep everything original. My 65 is a VW color called salsa red, originally baby blue. That green might look pretty good, still trying to decide what color to paint my 64 Savoy.

I have a question.. I have 68/69 HP manifolds will they work with the 66 b body? I have 2 sets of them. One set is original the others are year one repops. Just checking to see if there will be issues.
