Based on all the reading and the photos, this is nowhere near a survivor and the prior owner(s) did a lot of modifications. I've never seen a Dana rear end on a factory 318 car, that absolutely makes no sense. Having the 440 call outs makes me believe that a prior owner had a 440 in it and...

@Cuda Hunter for the fender tag

Not mine (not my pics either). I absolutely love everything about this '71 and it's very full fender tag of options. It was born within a couple days of me. This is also the first GB2 paint I've ran across on a '71. Very unique build, I can't wait to see someone restore it (maybe you all have...

If you go the Vintage Air route, be aware that you need to remove your dash for proper mounting of the box - the rear mounting bracket requires 2 holes drilled and the firewall requires 2 new holes for the front bracket. The kit uses a new control mechanism that mounts where your original...

I would say it's a step above the infancy stage, more like in its teenage phase. When I bought my first printer in December of 2024, it was printing stellar prints out of the box five times better than what we see above. Since then I fine-tuned it a little bit more for better quality. The...

great design, that's what I'm talking about!! too bad they printed it like ass though. those layer lines and the print quality sucks. this is exactly what I was talking about though - not bad to get the initial design work knocked out, but the final model needs some tweaks/adjustments to 'get...

Lots of variables depending on how much has to be done. For instance, if I had an STL file ready to print, it would be @ $60-100 depending on how many hours to print and post-process. Ideally you'd find someone more local (easier to work with for test fitments and finish without a lot of back...

Yes, all that could be done. You could have yours scanned if you can find a local and modify it using standard CAD software or a straight new redesign with proper measurements. The differences from what I can tell would be adjusting the top/bottom frame line to accommodate the lettering, a...

Since it will be tough to source a faceplate, I'd just 3d print a replacement

Nicely optioned!!

That's the first time I've ever seen Y02, pretty cool

I measure 21 inches from top of the arch to the concrete with 14 inch tires

My '70 EB5/EB5, the original interior was *all* B5. When restoring it, I used Herbs for the dash pad and it was a pretty spot on match. I had my dash frame and interior trim powder coated though, the match is pretty close. Herb's Parts: HERBS PARTS INTERIOR PAINT, Interior Paint, PAINT Edit: I...

I found a sheet in the back seat bottom of my LA built '70 BH, B5/B5 .... for another BH about a hundred #s off mine in W1/B5 (sounds like a cool combination with a white exterior and bright blue interior). Since they are both Slant six cars it's doubtful that anybody's looking for the sheet...

This is exactly it. Experience and having multiple examples is part of the key, because different plants did things slightly differently and even variations from year to year. Having the build sheet you can get most of the way there, but with variations you may still not get 100%. Out of all the...
