  • Vehicle Overview

    I bought my Coupe when I was 14 years old and am retired now. Started to learn what I know about cars at least early on primarily on her. In High School she had a 303 Olds and was faster than my other poor friends flatheads. That did not last as everyone started buying muscle cars. Finally with the help of Heinzman Streetrods we got her mostly completed. With the Red paint job I dreamed about along with a custom frame, four wheel Coil over suspension with12" Willwood disc brakes, 9" Ford four bar rear and Heidt's Super Ride II front suspension. LS3 Engine with a 4L75E transmission. Custom leather interior with 225-45x17 Nitto front and 295-45x18 Rear Nitto tires on American Racing Torque Thrust wheels. After a 500 miles on the speedometer to check things out we drove 2400 miles to the 2019 Streetrod Nationals in Louisville KY and toured the state other attraction. The trip was flawless.

    Future Plans

    Dyno the LS3, more fit and finish little issues then hope to drive it enough to wear it out and rebuild many times.
