Finally got my car today!!!!!
I am still a litle shocked because the condition of the car is alot worse than I thougt.It has some bad rust issues mainely on the back half of it.The rear fraimrails will have to be replaced as well as the floor on top of them,rocker panels are rusted,drivers side of floorboard will have to be replaced,the panel between rear window and trunklid is rusted,doors need lower doorskin,some rust in the top,lower part of front fenders and so on.
The good part is thad it has some dragrace mods.The front shock towers have been modified to make clearens for the Hooker headers,it has frame connectors and ladderbars,coilover rear shocks,reverse manual valvebody,aluminum radiator,MSD box with rev.limiter,Holley 750cfm carb.
The car runs good and makes good power.
To my surprice I discovered that this is a GT car NOT a GTA(numbers,emblems and a CLUTCH PEDAL)
I realy need a tap on the shoulder Smile Smile Smile

Tap Tap.. I think you will find that it is not as bad as you think. We got a 67 GT and it has some issues too but we have been fixing them one thing at a time. If you get down just take it out and burn some rubber... You will feel better.. Our motor is out now so it will be a while before we can do that... I am curious however how much did it cost to get the car shipped to you????

The shipping costed a fortune around 4200$ Florida-Iceland.
With shipping,taxes,customs and all ,car is around 14000$ Shocked
Living in Iceland and being a car nut is $%&#!!!!expensive!!!
