Hello, first I can't spell... (please remember and put up with it please)
Been here awhile haven't talked much. Name is Kevin. I have a 1968 DeVille Conv. (F8291024). I bought it in 11/04 w/ 60k for 1,500. It looked good, ran good and I bought it and drove it home (105mi.) with no prop. I drove it on the 10day plate and drove it to the shop. Haven't seen it or touched it since. Some (base) work has been done. Everything (yes a/c) works, body is steight. Frame had some rust (holes) behind rear wheels.. Got repalcement NOS frame on ebay.
So thats where it's at. (Pic's to follow - have many)
What I wanna ask/talk about is where it's going...
I'd like:
solid 12sec. car (on motor)
22/24" rims
able to cruise all night (willing to deal - but no major worries)
I got the paint done for now (flat -ratrod-blk), I was thinking ostrich seating. Tan carpet.
The motor/frame swap is why I'm here. I'll need help - and I'm sure with a bunch else along the way.
I've done a few builds (some wild) and have all tools/trades needed. If I don't have it... I now someone who owes me something.. if not I can always owe them:bigroll:
I'm looking for any an all help. I mean all because everything is an idea..!
Budget... we'll see as it comes togther.. I'm ready to drop some coin.... as long as it's worth it. I'd would like to do it in steps and be able to enjoy it along the way
Remember: BAD ASS/ MEAN LOOK/ No EXCUSSES..
Thanks anyone who has an idea that could help.
