[/font]This is my wife's car that I have been working on for the past 3yrs. When we first married 8 years ago, her car was sitting in a cow pasture at her dad's farm. She never wanted to sell it because of the past history. It is her first car and her grandpa (recently passed away) bought it together. I now have it running and can drive. It has the original 4.2 v8 which I think is neat. The paint is in poor shape and we cant find tires for the original wheels. Tire dealerships in Springfield, MO told me that they discontinued that particular size tire. Interior looks good though. I would like to keep this car in original condition for the most part.
I would really like to find a sponsor that could help me afford a nice paint job. Red with the black racing stripe is preffered. I would also like some help with new wheels and tires. I am not for sure how long the engine will hold up, but we had planned on just driving it until it goes and then either rebuilding the original motor or dropping a crate motor in it.
This car means alot to my wife and we would like to pass it on to our kids some day.
Since my wife is a middle school teacher and we promote all the local gatherings, parades, car shows, this car will be drove alot when finished.
Thanks for looking and I will post pictures as soon as possible.
