I've been looking. I'm thinking direct bolt up mustang II front end and a 4 link with a narrowed 9". I would really prefer something that accepts hub bearing assemblies over one piece hub/rotors though. Pretty sure I got time to think about it though. 67 Malibu or a 65 riviera are both on my wish list too. Something about that Riviera front end just grabs me every time I see it.
Oh god PLEASE don't go with that crap Mustang II style suspension!!! I mean it's OK if you just want to put from bar to bar but if you ever want to take a corner or off ramp at speed it sucks! This was barely adequate suspension in 1974! The only reason people use it is because it's cheap and easy but it is the worst possible choice if you ever want any form of handling compared to what else is out there.
But who really wants an all original 66 Nova? Crap suspension, crap brakes, junk motor, and wagon wheels. Even the SS was a far cry from anything super sports. Lol
That goes for the first gen mustangs also. People want that old car but the reliability and comfort of their daily driver. Just can't beat a restomod even though I don't always agree with what is referred to as restomod. Most of them are just customs. Big block, big brakes, and air ride is not restomod to me. Just me 2cents.

Agreed...I'm all about putting modern engines and reliability into vintage cars!

Ugh...yeah, I've got a couple of memories mixed up with each other. I'm not that old yet, but I'm on some new medicine that has been causing me some issues the last week or so. It's been happening a lot the last couple of days too. I was telling someone something that happened about ten years ago, and my wife looked at me and said, "what are you talking about? we didn't go to Nashville." I did go when I was on a job, but she didn't. We stayed in the same hotel chain when we went to Florida for a vacation that I stayed in while I was in Nashville, and got the two somehow tied up into one. I think I need to change the meds.

My brother had a three on the tree in his 81 F100 but I never got a chance to drive it.
It was a straight six 300 and he drove it for 15 years. I remember he paid $6400 for it new and my dad paid half. To this day he's never had a car payment.

I need a raise and a bonus at work this year. I gotta buy the Jeep I want later this year. Someone is being a dick about me driving his truck so much and getting it dirty. I wash it as much as I can but it's hard after working all day and I don't have a car wash convenient to get to between work and home. Feeling very irritated right now........

The only thing I ask of Kristy when she uses my truck is to clean up her mess inside. She's horrible at leaving her crap and trash in my truck and hers and it annoys the crap out of me. However I never expect her to wash it.

That would bug me too. Neither of us is like that. You will never find trash in either of our vehicles. The only things you will find in my car are an umbrella and a microfiber towel on the floor behind my seat.

Oh, geez. My wife's car is a wreck. I can not stand getting in it when it's like that, and on the rare occasion we have to take it, she spends five minutes cleaning it out before she'll tell me we're ready to go. I guess she's gotten tired of me complaining about the state of her car.
