well like the title says, it's a 69 that needed some work and I thought hey why not!! Boy was I mistaken!!! I bought this car in indiana and then hauled it home. I proceeded to fully disassemble the car and take the body completly off the pan. Every thing was either cleaned and inspected and reused or it got tossed and replaced. So far everything has been going well and I am now to the wiring aspect of the car!! Yippee!! If all goes well I should be taken her out on the maiden voyage come spring. Attachments:

WOW! Night & Day. Very Nice. Looks like you had to replace at least one of the heater channels. Curious to know what engine & modifications you did or plan on.
Thanks

Here's a little newer up to date pic. thanks for looking guys. As for the motor I am pretty much running a stock 1600 with a progressive two barrel. I figured it should be ok to start out with. But as we all know, bigger is better!!! Attachments:

What's with all the Bajas? I think I am going to need one soon. I found a nice one but he still can't get the title clear.
