Most the work will be inside. Its perty sorry looking in there. The body is all solid, just minor surface rust that will come off with sanding or blasting. The engine runs it just needs some tune up work done. The brakes need alot of work.
So heres my plan, someone needs to get a still. Ill run the moonshine, then i just need just need a copilot with an M-11 and we should be good. I already have a 1911 to lend supporting fire incase the fuzz gets too heavy. All procedes will go right to Ben. So who whants to help? :lol:

well i dont think the flathead is gonna outrun any lt1 caprices, and mod motor crown vics. maybe you should put the 425 in it and THEN, you can run all the moonshine you want! you can get lee to build a still. he lives in the middle of nowhere, and there arent hardly any cops.

well keep the flathead, and then when your satisfied with the poncho, build a little t bucket or something and put the flathead in it.

I called a buddy of mine and he said i can have a 500 shortblock for $150 :lol:
So looks like ill just be strippping down the 425 to use for mockup purposes seeing as how 425s are 100lbs lighter than a 500...

Funny I went through a ton of ideas with my 39 and decided the same thing, keep it pretty much stock!! Dont know if you are having the same problem I am, EVERY bolt being 65+ years old breaking now matter how long you soak it!!! :evil: Good luck on your extra project also.

im realy happy with that guy. As far as tires and wheels go, im just getting some 15x7 chrome wheels with baby moons. Then ill be running the same size tire thats on it now, just with a 2 3/4" white wall. But that wont be going on untill i get it painted. Im thinking of painting it a super deep blue. Dark enough to where if you glance it looks black, but when you get close theres just a bit of blue peeking. That should look nice.
Before i realy get too carried away with a cadillac conversion though im going to get the flathead running smooth.
