Got my new front skins on back ones are comming Mickeys 14" 70's front n50's in back

 

That's going to look great with the rears done. I love the wheel choice with the car color.

 

got the buckets from procar and had the rear seats done to match did the dash myself Ron Roth polished the speedo lenses got the radiator fitted (4core alum) msd IGNTION wire harnesses ready all I need is a engine. Boy them engine guys are slow. Stroking a 400 to a 462 solid roller cam,dougs headers, rpm intake,holley 3 barrel, 9qt pan, ported heads, 4 speed hope to see engine soon

 

We all need to go to church and pray that Tony's engine gets finished soon.
Tony ..Or as I call him "Dr.Bergh"..Due to the fact that he has more Patients than any one I know.
Good Luck Buddy .And remember ..Keep your Stick on the Ice.Were all in this together ..Ron

 

I agree with Ron, you are showing great patience. I can't image how hard it must be for you waiting for the motor, it's killing me just waiting for updates.

The car looks great and I'm sure it will be worth it in the end.

 

Great progress!!!

 

THANKS guys my birthday is next week it would be nice to take a birthday cruse Dec is my motors 2nd birthday at the builders I was just starting with a frame then

 

And I thought waiting 9 months for my motor for the 48 was a long time. Sounds like it will be worth it though. Keep us posted

 

got a steel billet flywheel and a scattersheild comming going with a victor intake too and got some vintage finned valvecovers from santa

 

Tony you are making some good progress. Sounds like Santa was good to you. If you want, I can shine those valve covers up for you. We can trade for some airbrushing. Happy new year!

 

Happy new year to you too! Give Aaron a call when you are ready and talk to him if you cant get ahold of him let me know

 

Saw the post of before and after of the cutlass.Really brings back memories. Did a 66-442 in Illinois back in 75. Painted it Candy Fire Red
and molded a L88 Scoop into the hood. When I first saw the picture of your's I could not tell what kind of scoop it was. Kind of set me back,, thought it was my old one till I noticed yours is a hardtop mine was a sedan ( post car ).
Im sure by now it is all done, look's like it is going to be a Killer car.
Best of luck with it. Tom

 

Thanks Tom all I have left is the motor waiting on the engine guy had this car since 1977 first car I have more pics if you look at my photo album havnt drove it since 1982 hope the motors done by spring. The scoop is a Wipple racing scoop its all metal it was nice to work with

 

The walleyes are hitting right! now my buddy just got a 30 in 11lbs I also do taxidermy so i get to stay up on things

 

Got my finned 4in air cleaner to match the valve covers called my engine guy and told him im comming up to get my motor done or not i want to finish this project he said give him a week and a half I said ok last time. maybe i can finally make a show this spring. On the pos side i did have enough time to pickup alot of cool ad ons that i didnt have for the motor learned a few things too it should look really cool I sprayed candy red inbetween the fines on the air cleaner and valve covers picked up stainless fuel lines also red wires for the plugs and rubey red for the block if it looks right

 

HEY AFTER 2 1/2 YEARS I GOT A ENGINE! It runs great got to drive my car after 30 years of it sitting. Wow what memories it brings back. It has a boat load of torque too! Got some video but its to big and dont know how to send it?

 

Wow, other than the scoop and 442 stuff, it looks like a twin to my 66. What color is yours? I picked a cranberry red metallic off the 73 Cutlass. Nice. It was pretty dark at night, when I took this. I'll try a different one. If anyone is looking for a complete rearend....with 456 posi gears, let me know. I put a 200 4r in this, and had my fun from light to light, and even quarter mile, but went too far over the top and put a rear end out of a 65 in this. It's a pegleg 2.78. I'm not sure how to check this, but think it may go over 150 mph. I'll check the gas mileage this week.

 

mine is house of color candy red over silver met lets see yours

 

I'm for real ! My first car was a 67 Cutlass 4DR . I love the looks , especially the front and back end of those years . I'm getting closer to getting back to my 72 CS , but still have my other cars to fix first

 

got some pictures of you cars? i would enjoy seeing them

 

heres the video of it at start up i finally figured out how to do it. well ok my wife did
