Time to let her go, I built this car almost 4 years ago, Its a driver,Car has a ton of work done to it.Every aspect of the car has been worked on, upgraded. Engine/Transmission, suspension (air-ride, interior, body and paint, glass, weather striping. Its a mild custom, most work people cant even tell unless you know coronets.

The factory 3 then every one of those has a overdrive gear making it a 6 speed of sorts. I cruise on the highway 80-90 mph regularly with no sort of redline or over working of the engine. Every gasket in car has been replaced front to back. The engine bay has copper lines that supply the fuel to the carbs and to vacuum advance, oil filter. people call the engine bay "the still" cause it looks like a moonshine setup!! (thousands of miles on it and never any sort of leak of any sort) All new brakes, Scarebird front disc brake conversion, new booster, proportioning valve, rear drum rebuild new pads, E-brake rebuild it works!!! All new brake and fuel lines. Suspension: custom air ride, slam specialties bags with internal stoppers, custom made front bag brackets and cups,custom rear link bars, new shocks, 1/8" lines, air ride runs of Nitrogen...I run the tank at 100 psi...what this means is there is NO electrical components in the airride...you will need to have the tank filled...I drive the car alot and fill it maybe once every month. its not expensive. No compressors running, no valves clicking away...just air when you need it with no electric draw and NO noise!!!

Rear bumper was a 51 mercury bumper I stretche, molded and made it match the flow of the rear fenders and valance. custom rear license plate bracket that doesnt touch the bumper. Paint: shes painted with Dupont Porsche silver as a base coat, then 5 pounds of Ed Roth Silver surfite monster flake. Then entire car!!! the paint dances when light hits it. painted the roof in HOK Pagan Gold panels with lace ghost patterns. CAR IS SMOOTH!!!! everyone walks up to it and touches it..yes i let people touch it..its just a car..plus it lets them feel how smooth it is...guys paint flake jobs and they are rougher then sandpaper.
