So with all the different tastes and wackadoodle ideas floating around here I was thinking...
What if we were all to get together and build a car, no budget BUT it has to be from parts sourced from Craigslist or other sites that sell used parts.
The first car is posted, and a basic idea put out there, your job is to source parts in your area from those sites to build the car. We can hash out custom touches.
Once the car is "built" Someone else post a car to build and a theam for us to source parts for.
So for the first car. A 1953 Pontiac Catalina witha straight 8.
I would build this car as a driver. I would like to keep the 8 in it but am not stuck with that. Maybe a I6 witha turbo but it has to a poncho mill. Transmission and rear end are open to suggestions as is any custom touches to the body, frenched tail lights, headlights, shaved and so on. Color is open for debate as well. No skulls, no flames, no dingleballs or hores blankets.
It must be lowered maybe bagged. I want whites with black steel rims, chrome trim rings and bullet center caps and lug nuts.
Flame throwers are a must.
interior...white roll and tuck with off colored piping.
So, what can you find in your area
If you can do the custom work like frenching, what would you do?
Box the frame?
