Here are a few pics of the old girl before we start pulling the motor and transmission for a rebuild.

Nice to see a 4 door being saved.

Please continue to post pictures through your build. John

I love them four doors....look forward to more pics/progress.

More before pics of car and interior in my album for members to veiw. I like the bigger 4-door cars because of the smooth ride and lots of room. Who say's the pedestrian models can't have fun too.

I heard once that "two doors were for people w/o friends".....either way, I like'em.

Nice, I would get a 4dr for a daily if I lived down south, couldn't bring myself to drive one in the snow though. Maybe I'd make a 4dr 442 clone out of it

Wow I think there was grease and mud for each year since this car was new stuck everywhere but after a few GoJo baths we pulled it out..

My son has told me he thought it would look a little cooler with out the long bumper to bumper beat up chrome on both sides of car since the factory guys when built did not spend much time or thought on what it would look like in 45 years.
