Lunchbucket's 48"x48"x20" Reef

We installed the ram air. We were able to take all the measurements off the Cobra. Luckily my dad knew a guy that had the ram air and got it for a decent price because the last time we check on Ebay they were running around $1200!

Cars are becoming more of a love for me than my tank. American muscle is great. Can't wait to have mine for MANY MANY more years. Woul dlove to have a few more.

I have always been a gear head by heart. My first love ..heheheh. As soon as my son gets a little older I will probally start a ground up or build a kit car. I still need to get rid of some of my toys or do something with them. The great thing about a car is you don't have to always drop money and time, you can take a break and nothing will die. heheeheh .

Is that a For Sale sign on your baby????

 

[crab0000]

Unfortunately, yes. I need to pay some bills off and still have two more, so I need to thin the heard.

Cars are cool enough, but they can't sting you, bite you, or take out $1k in corals in an angry fit.

erics - I WISH I had that much know how to do a rebuild. I don't have anyone's help around here either. The one guy I knew that was a huge gear head moved

Very true you can take a break and leave them sit in the garage and not loose anything

crab - Sad What all you have?

jnarowe - LOL

Currently I have a '78 Cutlass w/T-tops and bucket seats that I've had since I was 19, an ;84 1/2 20th Anniversary Mustang with a turbo 4 cyl., a '91 5.0 Coupe Mustang and 'the '93 GT. Unfortunately the '93 is the only one that is currently picture worthy. My dad has 13 or 14 musclecars he has restored, so I get it honest!

 

[Lunchbucket]

What your dad have?? I'm not a huge mustang guy but I LOVE the 71 Mach 1 w/ the 429 in it.

Well, I have a 429 to put into one of my Mustangs. I'll try to remember what all my dad has; the year models may be off by one or two, but they're close.
'71 Barracuda
'75 Trans-Am
'71 Torino Cobra
'70 1/2 Falcon
'69 AMX
'72 AMX
'69 GTO Convertible
'69 Cougar Eliminator
'78 King Cobra Mustang
'87 Corvette
'85 Grand National
And he's currently working on a '58 Packard Hawk. There are only a couple of hundred left and Packard only built them for one year. It has a supercharged 289 from the factory. I'm looking forward to it; it's going to be an awesome car! It sems like I'm forgetting something, but can't remember. I'll see what all I have pics of and post them later if you're interested.

 

[Lunchbucket]

DANG!! Does your dad do this for a living?

I want that 429 engine bad wanna sell it

No, he just has a very obsessive personality. He actually retired from GA DOT a few years ago, but the Packard is taking awhile due to the rarity of it and trying to find parts and money. I think I'm going to hold onto the 429 for a little while, besides the shipping would be killer!

Thanks! You're welcome to come up sometime. He likes showing people his cars and telling them about them. He's weird about driving them though; he just doesn't much. He's taken the '69 AMX and the Trans-Am to Canton before.

 

[Lunchbucket]

I could come get it from you

[crab0000]

I think I'll just have to keep it for now. I found some pics of my dad's cars.
Here's the Torino Cobra

Here's the '69 AMX after it was painted. I don't have any pics from after it was finished.
