another 69' GTX project.
old drag car that's was put away in the late 80's early 90's. shows 46k original miles. appears to be all original paint, vinyl top, trim, all original interior including carpet, seats, headliner, door panels, everything. original trunk mat, stickers and markings. low optioned car.
plan is to give it a good cleaning & buff and keep it the way it is with the old school racing stuff still on the car.
I have an old 68' 440 engine that I've had since 84' and I have a 69' dated tranny to put in it.

only options appear to be power steering and rear defrost and auto trans. pretty low options, good choice for a drag car.

Wow- that thing is in great shape. I wouldn't restore it either.

So neat, LOVE the day 2 unrestored cars and that goes hand in hand with the best choice of front wheels you put on it too. Can you give us some history on it? What's the story on it.

thanks everyone. it seems to be mostly original with the exception of the speed parts that were added when faced
un-barried my old 440 and putting it back together and gonna see if it will fire up. if it does its going in. it's a motor that I've had since around 1983 or 84. it's a 68' block, .030 over w/ some added pistons, cam, carb and intake and headers. should be a good driver motor if it still runs!

going to use this original air cleaner & valve covers as-is and not going to restore them. I think the old patina will match that rest of the car and the motor will look the part as an old drag car.

close up. lots of scratches, scuffs and a little rust, just like the rest of the car. should look right at home once it's in the car...
