I got another Cordoba...

Finally got myself another Cordoba. Lean-burn 360 2bbl. UNDERCOATED!!!! This thing is CLEAN! It came with a ton of parts and I already had a ton of parts from parting out my green car that got wrecked.
The Pile of parts...


The Interior is pretty nice...







Pics from the day I went to get it down in Taylorville,IL. As it sat when I pulled up...



On the trailer headed home...



Finally home it had been raining on and off all day...





The plan is to make a Fast,Cool, Reliable weekend toy. Drive to the track, run 13s all night and drive it home. I know making a Cordoba fast is going to be a task,but I like to be different.

This is a quick picture of what I kinda want to do until I can afford to repaint the entire car...



So far I havent gotten too much done, but it made it look ALOT better then when I Brought it home.


Pictures with its new friend...



- I Removed and refilled the seam where the 1/4 meets to roof. It was all cracked.

Before:


After:



-I Painted the top white where the Vinyl Top was, and will be again sometime soon.
-Put on different rims/tires with Dog Dish caps.


-I Cleaned up under the hood.
Before:

After:

-Removed the oxidation from the paint on the sides/trunk lid.

The left side of the deck lid is before and the right side is after....


I Started polishing up some of the trim....





Hopefully Before the snow starts to fly I'll have it all tuned up and converted to regular electronic ignition so I can drive it for a few weeks before I have my Ramcharger ready to roll for winter.


I think I'm going to build a 408 Stroker for it, but also a built 440 sounds good too. For now Ill just add quick bolt ons to the stock 360 and cruise it while I build a stout driveline on the side.

Very cool. Look forward to following your work. These cars are a lot of fun.

Very nice, I miss seeing these cars on the road.

Nice work. It looks like the trunk paint cleaned up nicely.

Am I seeing things or is that thing a radio delete?

yep radio delete. The guy thought the lower panel was in the car with the rest of the parts but it wasnt. Hes gonna ship it to me.

Like the steelie look on it....

My Dad had a 77 with a 400 when I was growing up.I loved it

Its been a while since I updated this... it now has a '72 340 built up to around 400hp. I swapped in an 8 3/4 with a 3:91 sure grip. I had the factory springs re-arched and had a leaf added. Ditched all the rubber isolator pads, still gotta get the aluminum ones for the t bar x-member and k-frame.Also looking for a non lock-up 904 to get rebuilt, my factory trans isnt doing to hot behind the 340.I plan on running a 3000 stall. Its pretty quick. Still dialing a few things in hope to have it at test n tune pretty soon.

E body 8 3/4. 657 case, 3:91 sure grip

Added a scoop. I think the car pulls it off.
