Project: Daily Driver!

Alright I know I am crazy. I traded a perfectly fine 1991 Miata for a 67 c30. That has no floor pans at all, and so many odd ends. But don't even care! I am 17 and time to have fun, right? Plus, it'll look awesome pulling my 70!



One of those that look better from the outside lol I'll take more for you all tomorrow. I got it Friday and have been to busy driving it and finding the small issues. The wanna be tow rig crap will be removed Friday when I go to dads. The back is simply looks, bolted to a flat bed. Looks awesome along with the push thing in the front but is SO heavy. Holy cow! Easily a thousand pounds all and all. It has a 350 in it, with a holley. Muncie sm420 and 14 bolt from 80s with a 3.42. Which make it able to be a daily. Get going on the highway and it sips the gas. When I got it home after driving it 60 miles, getting 13 mpg the entire trip, I adjusted the accelerator pump and put the timing at 12 degrees. Which helped it a ton. This truck I have drove it every bit of 200 miles, hasn't burnt any oil, or anything really. I had to fix the taillights after getting it home, when the were bolting on the flat bed they caught a wire which shorted it blowing fuses as fast as you put them in the box. Had to wire up the heater from complete scratch with a toggle switch. Didn't take to long. And duct tape the floors to make it less freezing lol The spid matches the vin, and says it came with air and heat. The motor still has brackets for ac and something behind dash that could possibly be ac related. But the dash is weird. None of the holes for ac, and all is out of proportion from my 70. Don't know. Crazy people. Gas gauge is completely not wired along with the dash really. So no speedo. I just read tach and carry around a broom stick to check gas level. Two things I am extremely use to doing with my 70 lol I'll update as I go. No real plans really. Just go at it and keep driving it, And make plans on the way.
