I just picked up the coupe today. As some of you already know, I had the front of the car chopped off (literally). Pretty much everything in front of the motor plate was cut out. I also had a one piece nose/fenders put on the car and a new 6" lift off hood. Here are the pics:

Thanks guys...

I have to rerun some fuel stuff and wiring - then throwing the small block chevy back in. There is a good chance I will be selling the small block back to my best friend who used to own it (from the Camaro that I crashed).

Yes, still staying Chevy - but looking at a naturally aspirated BBC!

The car is about as close to 'done' as it can be if I stay stock suspension. The only thing left to really do is change from a mild steel cage to a cromoly cage.

If its not named Id go with easy old "hawg" its the first thing that came to my mind.

The car has been called Old Yeller but its not so much yeller anymore. I've called it Old Grindy, coupe, stang, and while working on it a hell of a lot of four letter words [Smile]

It has now been tagged 'Junkyard Dog'
