looks like between the 2 theres one very solid clean truck, and the low milage on the 2wd id be keeping that engine

in this day n age 4lug vs 5lug is kinda moot, admitedly it weirds me out to find toyotas rockin 5x4.5(114.3)but really everyones kinda embraced it almost as a standard ...in the end i find the 4 vs 5 to be an asthetic to the wheels not the car IE a 5spoke on 4lug is just weird ditto for a 4spoke...

"if" these had taken off and been a rival with the fox body i could have actualy gotten behind the chally name

see and i think the whole package of the 2-3 is just a better execution ..the grill flows as does the tail..everything seems to make sense, where the 64 just feels like alot of ideas taken from alot of places and just slapped on....in a way worse than AMC..the "flow" just isnt there

good point on the brakes doc, of course alil googlefoo tells me that some hondas run the same bolt patern soooo id wager with a lil creativity you could put a pretty big honda/acura rotor on it with little more than a caliper mount adapter 90/early200 to be specific..so theres a big aftermarket...

oh man that thing would RIP and yeah smaller than a fox by a bit..id imagine a good bit lighter too

i did not know this looks at 67 fish with docs old 5:33 gears with 3:23 bolts in it

id tell you its stampeed on the ring and useualy the pinion as well but thats some serious chunkage..sooooooo it may not be there anymore

thats always been my fear with a "dip" while its quick, it just leaves everything exposed and worse....everything you CANT SEE let alone get to.....atleast with traditional blasting or even laser...if you cant see it, it doesnt get stripped

agreed on all counts, i dig the 64 and 69 valiants , after 69 you cant ID them from a dart half the time as far as a daily goes something your not fully in love with that gets beat n thrashed on creates its own type of love....the lil 07 yaris has shown me that, cheep pos shit box, and at this...

10 lbs from the crank..shit thats MASSIVE....thats not "a little lighter" thats another league lighter

imo tho your ahead due to the weight savings tho right?

grabbed it a month or so back, traded a 1980 xl500s(no title) for it, 06 xb 156k on the clock....been dabbling at it off n on its one of those things where you dont have to like work for a few hours to get something done, or even get started....like my lloyd....with the xb i can just drill a few...

got up at 3am, for 4 hours of "work" then continued driving for another 3+ hours to north of seattle, picked up a friend and drove the 30 mins back to seatle, hopped a ferry and proceded to continue driving ...with random stops, back to a ferry then the 3+ hours home..got home round 1130pm lots...

dont get me wrong, i like these bodys, but the grill from an impala has always felt out of place

and here i am blissfully happy i hung onto all of teh important ones......while id love to have my 71 caddy coupe back, to be honest ANY 71 caddy coupe would do

i wish you the best of luck..no seriously, after cow managed to get his car back, and now your hearing about leads to your old stuff i think the luck is in the air

id imagine having that much mass on the front axle tends to wear those out faster yeah??

sonds like you just adjusted the angle of that snowball again LOL but hey how cool is taht finding the engine you owned would be sweet

id want to presever those old worn decals, so those would have to be clear'd
