Tell the world a little bit about your vehicle
Traded one of my motorcycles straight across for this potential gem.
Engine/Drivetrain Modifications:
Came with a late model Chevy 400 V-8 and turbo 400 tranny with shift kit delivering power to a 9" rear end.
This engine/auto tranny setup will be swapped out with one of Henry's FE blocks as soon as time will allow and the good lord intended.
Suspension Modifications:
This Panel unfortunately has a late model GM sub-frame.
Interior/Exterior Modifications:
Full custom interior in grey and red.
Future Modifications:
My ole buddy Jimmy Jines (founder of California Customs) and I did some of the first sub-frame installs back in the mid 70's in south L.A. (Bellflower) California. It didn't take us long to stumble across a Volare in a SoCal junkyard and see that it's torsion bar suspension was damn near a bolt on to the stock F-100 frame. Apparently others figured it out as well.
Along with the Chevy power, it too will be 86'd for a full chassis swap and an FE power plant. Read more ยป
