Anyone Collect Old Cars?

Recommended Posts

i built cars for years for other people before getting out of the industry. Here are a few that i did my final year in a shop. The 67 camaro is powered by a gm 502 and mated to a 6 speed. Mini tubs on 20 x 12s out back. full air system with brembo brakes and a 4 link. The 71 AMX is a full custom on a partial tube chassis with mini tubs and full sculpted sheet metal interior, this car has been taken over by a very talented fabricator and all around awesome guy and once finished will be powered by a twin turbo amc 401. The 56 ford is just now being finished up and has a 540 merlin with an 8-71. again another completely custom vehicle. If you want to see more on these vehicles or some other sick stuff visit VisualFxPaint.com I Helped open up the shop over 10 years ago with a really great group of guys. really do miss it but had to go where the money was. the white impala is my matching numbers 2 door hard top i have had for 13 years and for 5 years was only car that i drove everyday, even on trips. Its been a great car, still have it and will eventually give it a proper makeover.

This is my GM ride, a 1976 Firebird Formula 400. I got this in 1990 for $400, put about $5000 into running gear upgrades. chris

Back in high school, that formula was the car I wanted. I always liked it more than the T/A. there is a guy here in my town named Rick McLaughlin, who buys and sells these and T/A's. He has an extensive collection. Here is the link.
