Scapegoat · 03-08-2009, 07:21 PM

yadayadayada this has been posted before, no new pics since its sitting and waiting for the parts truck to move out...

waiting to get the parts truck out, then its probably either rewiring this one, or installing the power disc brakes and 5 lugs

**Ender81** · 03-08-2009, 10:42 PM

I still really dig that truck. What are the plans for it?

still trying to decide... i guess it all depends on what money i have when an engine comes along... toying with the idea of a c5 engine and trans... blown 350 or 454...

right now, i just want to get the disc brakes on, the truck rewired, and legal...

**Ender81** · 03-09-2009, 08:20 PM

Legal is good Scape legal is good lol

Some time this week I'll try to stop home to get some more pictures. I was informed our Nash Metropolitan is now sold so I'm interested to see what the replacement will be.

Seems like every time my mom bitches and says we need to sell one, we buy two more...

I won't lie though, as ugly as the Metro was, I had some crazy ideas involving an f20...

The Captain · 03-09-2009, 08:35 PM

something along these lines, with a s2000 motor and possibly a turbo setup.

The engine compartment was surprisingly big.

**Ender81** · 03-09-2009, 09:02 PM

I know it's ugly but I love the metropolitan.

1952 Chevy Pickup classic resto

194? Metropolitan
1972 VW Beetle
1950 Hudson Hornet
1948 Plymouth ??

Anyone who can name the bike gets 5 points.

Metro and Beetle are gone

but add a 1964 Chevy Impala to the list.

StreetEG · 06-10-2009, 08:40 AM

Who knows if my Z counts, but its a 74... just done with a new school flare

Kool-Aid · 06-10-2009, 08:54 AM

I have a 84 monte SS with a 69 motor those that count?

**Ender81** · 06-10-2009, 11:13 AM

I consider vintage to be 70's and back unless it's a rare/desireable car from the early 80's (this is just me). So yeah the Z and the monte would count. I would count my friends Grand National too lol. But when I see an add for a classic on craigslist and I crack it open and see an 89 towncar I do have to shake my head. That being said this thread shouldn't be held by my definition it's just to see who else has a thing for old cars.

Kool-Aid · 06-10-2009, 11:26 AM

Don't really like putting pictures of my car on this site, I feel it doesn't really belong. But here is my monte with a 455 olds motor.

The Captain · 06-10-2009, 11:42 AM

Yea but when you work on it its not so itty bity. Alot of tight spaces. The one tube to the header has to go through the wheel well around the frame rail and connects to the collector. But yea its still a big engine bay
