hello:I am brut 442, new to the site and and excited to taking part in.

 

Welcome. Any pics to share of your ride?

 

Welcome to the site, x2 on some pics. What year is your 442?

 

Welcome Brut, whatcha working on?

 

sorry for the late replies but trying to navigate this site is new to me. I have 4 rides they are all 1970 442's one is a restored 442 conv. the others are drivers in need of restoration.1970 w-30 conv,1970 w-30 hdt auto, and 1970 w-30 4spd post.

 

Brut, We would LOVE to hear more about those cars.!!

Oh yea...we love pics!

 

here are some of my rides, the orange w30 conv. I bought from the original owner

 

Wow! Great collection Joe.! I have never seen an orange W30 before... And the post car is very cool. Do they still have original motors? And Welcome to CO

 

Thanks for the welcome. The original owner of the orange W30 was in a minor fender bender in the early '80s and decided to change the paint color from Burgundy mist(original color) to the color you see today. It has all the original equipment including the motor, drive train, carb, dist, alt., etc. The red W30 post has a spare motor and 4 speed trans that are built to the original W30 specs. The original motor and trans are safely stored away.

 

Welcome. Is it really a non-original orange or is it Rally Red, which was an available color in 1970?

 

Thanks. The color is a non original orange.

 

Welcome to the site, Joe. That's some stable ya got there, congratulations! Beautiful cars. I watched all 9:04 of that convertible walk around....sharp car!
What did you run in that race? Couldn't read the time and I thought I heard "13.." something. Seemed quicker than that. Very impressive.
Best of luck with your rides and thanks for sharing.

 

I just checked that video out too. Thanks for sharing a little about those cars with us Joe. Cool stuff.

 

Thanks again. the e.t if I remember is 13.39 . The quickest time I have run is 12.80 @ 104 mph with a 3.08:1 rear diff.

 

WOW! 12's with a 3.08 rear? That's pretty impressive. TH400?

 

Yes the car has a TH400 with a mild shift kit and a 2000 rpm torque converter.

 

Welcome aboard Joe. See you and some of your cars on the weekend.
