End goal will be a ProStreet-esque build with a Hemi Pontiac perhaps. ProStreet for sure, engine isnt solidified. It will be staying Pontiac powered.

#

im still in the process of buying it off my brother. Him and a family friend built the car back in 2012 motor was seized so they ripped the motor out of the parts car it was bored 60 over I believe and they did a bunch of other shit to it my brother doesnt quite remember. Car got parked 2013 in the middle of tuning my brother didnt get time and family friend passed soon after. So its sat since then and im gonna pick up the pieces and bring it back for them both

#

i got a ton of extra parts to go with it to put it back on the road and make it better in the future

google doesnt mean thats all of them

#

thats just generalizing

#

caddies buicks, 60s, 70s 80s...

#

not just 60s impalas

#

lol

#

it only works on 80s stuff for me

#

looks dumb on the older stuff

brazen stag
#

I go to Lowrider shows and meets

#

I said almost always impalas

#

Impalas are like the npc platform for a Lowrider

strong cosmos
#

60s impala or an 80s caddy

brazen stag
#

Yeah the big ones

strong cosmos
#

ehhh

#

the impalas are long the caddies got skinny past the 70s

#

eldorado turned into a little coupe shitbox

It still works on small 80s stuff ig

#

op what's going on

strong cosmos
#

I gotta get another battery and then jump it off the starter and see if it does anything, ive got a feeling the starter might be dead but we'll see

#

ignition is a no go, the bezel nut i need is unobtanium and the wires are burnt in the dash. I have a spare 34k mile dash thats minty and has a universal ignition already wired in so I'm going that route later.

#

annoying that i spent $94 on a NOS b body 8 prong ignition switch but eh whatever

#

during my downtime ive dug more on the car for the options, pretty odd little comfort stuff. Car was ordered December 3rd, of 1965 from a dealer ive yet to decipher
Edit: The car was ordered from an unknown dealer somewhere in Minneapolis, MN. there is no record of what the address was. MN to ID then to WA is a long way i wonder how it got here lol

woeful fiber
#

i await for the quaddy

#

bought Riviera rally wheels for the heap I fucking hate those ugly ass truck wheel outlaw iis that are on it now

#

5x5 wheels are quite a bitch to find

#

way better than these atleast

covert solstice
#

I initially thought the wheels that are on it were just universal aluminum wheels.

#

I kind of like them, though.

strong cosmos
#

definitely not a muscle car

strong cosmos
#

forgot this existed again

#

i have to put my new starter in also tri power

strong cosmos

still hate these wheels lol

#

still waiting on oil to dial her in right and get her running good enough to move.

#

then she comes home to receive the beautiful tri-power i have in my room

keep in mind

265-455 pontiac

all the same

only differences being crank journal size

Oh

265-400 3''

421-455 3.5''

Or buy the 421 bonnie here

I saw your favorite cadillac there too

strong cosmos

That jawn should not be 75k

30k at most honestly

There’s nothing about it worth that money

i already got a tow rig so i dont necessarily need to make another one

karmic dust
#

In my project car

#

Sadly it's V8 only gives it 150 horsepower

strong cosmos
#

but its a hell of a lot smaller

#

and a hell of a lot cheaper to desmog

#

itd cost me 5k to desmog my 500

karmic dust
#

Due to how big and long it is

strong cosmos
#

not expected

#

my starchief makes 360

#

u just have smogger shit

karmic dust

Even though it has smogger shit

#

The V8 does get it to 120

Luxury model

Therefore it's designed to where you can't hear engine noises from the inside

is the motor a windsor

a 5.0 or 5.8

if its a v8 it is

you can very easily get 300hp out of a windsor

What do I need to do

#

To get 300 hp

strong cosmos
#

theyve been building them for over 50 years hoss, a million options u have

karmic dust
#

I don't even know if I'll work on this

#

Because

strong cosmos

the aftermarket is monstrous

karmic dust

The car is having trouble shifting out of park

#

And there are holes in the gas tank

Because it's crushed upwards

strong cosmos

knowing its a ford it probably shares on with like 4 other cars

You can literally just switch the parts off of those two

And nobody would be able to tell

Because they're literally the same frame and body style but just with a different front and back end

like the car, LOVE the motor. but it is just "something i wanted to get going again for the hell of it" to me. its not important like the pontiac is

it needs real love

something i aint got to give it. you want it fixed? come up here and buy it. cause i have enough shit on my plate i will never get to that car

cleaned the windows and inside a lil

#

alot better without that pink shit in the window lol

strong cosmos
#

ive been informed by my parts guy he has a '71 455 shortblock he will sell me. this might be the move

#

keep the 401 as a spare

#

8.4:1 down from 10.5 that the 401 is running but the 6x8s and the 068 cam should bump it up a little

#

and really i dont need 10.5:1 lol

#

9:1 would be perfect

#

ill have a shitload more torque and heads that burn modern fuel a lot better

#

even stock that 455 out torques my current shit lol

#

i probably have low 400s modified and that shit makes 455lbs stock

This a beautiful car fr fr
