Restoring my 73 trunk car
« on: November 23, 2011, 12:18:28 PM »
Hey guys my first post on here. about two months ago me and my dad bought a 73 Sedan with the original c4 and 2.0 recently rebuilt. We drove from Knoxville Tennessee to Florence South Carolina for this pup we intended for a Baby Cobra Jet clone type deal with cobra jet lettering and magnum drags the motor that was going in it was a 351CJ out of a Torino but its gone hay wire since then it went from that to a fuel inject 302 to a turbo 302 too a mustang ii 302 too a 460 too a 408 roller motor all the way to even a turbo 2.3 out of an svo hopefully we will decide on something its definatly gonna be grabber blue though with black interior and a mustang ii console!

Hey... you've not only got a plan, you've got multiple plans!  If you paint it Grabber Blue, you'll definitely catch the attention of a member in Oceanside, California who calls herself blupinto!  Let us know when you decide which route you're taking and then keep us updated on your progress!  Good luck!
