my 69 gtx conv finally done !!!! - 05/04/11 02:33 AM

i finished the car a few weeks ago it took alot longer than expected but i did 90% of the car myself had to take out the 410 gears it was not really good at cruising speeds i put in a set of 3.54's i had laying around now its great!i put a few hundred miles on it really no problems other than the cluster needs to be redone the speedo is sticky.runs and rides like a new car from 69!!

Well done and having the family interested is major plus. My daughter will be grinning from ear to ear later today( details later )

THE best looking B-body mopar ever made bar none.

although I may be slightly biased, and I wish I had never sold both of them.

Thanks Mike, but not really in position to buy one now.
The A12 car just got finished and it would have to go if I wanted to pursue a 4 speed GTX Vert

Great looking car,I see it came with a white stripe, but the red would look good with Red streak tires.

The wheels on it now look great, and they are the right ones

What are you looking to trade it for?
