just wondering if anybody out there in olds land has ever driven their ride while undergoing a resto?

i am thinking of doing this because i want a rider not a total show car. i dont want to trailer it to ride night so the tires dont get dirty, i want to be able to do burn outs and race for pinks like they did in the day.

currently i am customizing the brakes to power disk in front, as it is hard to do burn outs without brakes

then a new top so i can leave it outside sometimes without worring about rain, and give me a little more room in the garage.

o ya forgot to mention it is a 60 old delta 88 custom convertible with a 455/400

 

A lot of us have driving projects, been doing mine like that since 2009.

 

Check out my avatar. Been driving it for about 6 years and probably be another 6 years before its done.(at least)Even take it to show sometimes. Won a trophy for top 100 in one show. (Bad weather only about 70 cars came)

 

i just thought the reno would be more difficult and rust would be harder to control over a full off frame resto.
