this car is gonna cost me an arm and leg. if you dont know how to do the work yourself, be prepared to spend mad dough. thats what im going to do. what type ofmaro are looking to get?
 
car looks like crap, but under the hood is a different story, pics will be up in a minute...
 
i'll upload pics of the motor in a bit...

so far it has the new motor and ******, new rear axle, new brakes, new exhaust, and new dashboard. so it pretty much needs interior and exterior..probably justgonna have black interior for sure, but either black or a dark red exterior...still havent decided...
 
Nice pickup OP...GL on the job

I want to get a '67-69 Impala. I thought about the drop, but I want the hardtop. I got a model car that I'm trying to duplicate.

i just don't know what i should do first, the paint or the engine?

Engine, trans, rear first then paint. Its a bad thing when you paint it then do something to it doing the motor work. Dont ask me how I know.

Paint first..it's gonna be a pain pulling the engine back out when it comes time to paint
OP are you doing this your self? Since your dropping a new motor just strip the whole car down, double check for rust .....sent it in too a bodyshop to clean it up and painted ...then drop a new motor in it ....easier to paint the engine bay w/o the motor in it

My body in a process of rebuilding a FJ40, he strip everything down too the frame ...double check for rust ...he cleaned everything up ...strip the motor andrebuilt it ...doing everything himself, but then again he owns his own bodyshop

How long have you been working on it and are you get the racing strips?
I plan on restoring a 70 chevelle myself, my dad has a 72 also that he is still working on. Did everything himself except paint the car.
