Hi all,
I'm currently in Hawaii for a work contract, and thought we may as well take advantage of the Personal Import Scheme, so I just bought my wife her dream car for her birthday, a 68 Coupe. Which was immediately christened Jolene.
She was a 6cyl car, but has been tinkered with at some point, having a 351W from a 94 Bronco and a late model C4. (Not that I'm complaining.)
So far, we have had the tired C4 replaced with a correct period c4 unit, with a shift kit. Sorted out the previous owners dodgy engine swap (had the wrong engine plate on!!), installed a brake booster and freshened up the dash. Still have to renew front seats and fix the rust in the outer skin around the rear wheel arches. Possibly also a fresh set of Cragar S/S rims, the Edelbrock top end kit and a fresh exhaust system to round it off.
Any other ideas on what we could do here prior to shipping late 2017? My wife does not want concourse original, instead wants "period" feel.
Dan.
