Yeah cant beat the ol muscle cars i really like some of the ol 50s cars some sweet ones
dam too bad that car didnt have an engine maybe a good project for me wonder how hard would it be to put in a 5.0 HO
if you threw in a 5.0 5spd Fom i would probably take er i wouldnt mind taking it as is but i dont know i have no experience putting in an engine or the tools shop etc

Yeah I know I like the chrome bumpers, chrome grills, that sorta thing too. Not necessarily of any particular time era even, Ive seen some of those ugly to me 50s cars with amazing amounts of chrome on them.
Ah well. Least a guy can get 40-60 mpg in the plastic bubbles haha.

It`s not hard to make an 89 out of a 79 with a parts donor vehicle.
Your right Dustin, there is no power train in the 79.

Yeah it is Preppy but its still the same platform foxbody but he is right there quite a few differences
the 88 really has my interest but it sounds like it needs a lot of work i dont have the space or tools to put in a engine or tranny or knowledge lol
