well i cant use my bumper, and its a pita to find an 86, but ill figure it out when the time comes, probaly coming weeks or next month

 

Don't change it dude. Don't kill another 4 eye, expecially an 86.

 

why does everyone think that 86 body parts are hard to find? i post this site almost daily, and i swear most of you dismiss it because it looks similar to 50resto.com, but its not

Fox resto has good quality stuff too... i got my 84 wiring harness from there, and it looks identicle to the original one, and foxresto was the only place to make it.

 

$400 is outta my budget, that money is going towards engine, im only 17 and jobless currently

 

and i painted some more stuff today, and tore down the engine to a bare block, who needs an engine stand, had that thing dangling in the air sometime and sitting on my tire/stand. got it done in a few hours, with multiple problems

 

Bump

UPDATE: sisters boyfriend brought home his compressor today, so lots of progress will be made in next week or so, whole body stripped, and we will be paiting it here in my garage in the next month or so. engine will be getting its treatment aswell, so far i know im buying new pistons and everything for them, lifters, probaly junkyard gt40 heads, or a set of 351w heads from a friend (which would be better?) and a few other goodies. after getting new internals, ill probaly just bum an intake/carb and stuff from some friends to just get this thing started and running. but will eventually build this thing up strong

 

It's coming together nicely!!!

 

as far as the heads i would just pick up a set of gt40's

 

thanks guys, and ill keep an eye out for some gt40s once i get money,i finished taking engine apart, everything is really in good condition. but im definately getting a new set of pistons for the rebuild, looking at some keith blacks. not sure whatelse im getting, dont have many new pics since i did all that but heres a few.


put some interior in to make more room in garage, few dash peices and stuff bolted on, and threw all the seats and carpet in, still gotta dye the carpet, but... here it is
