Welp, here it is. Took me quite a while to get a digital camera, finally got one so now I can get some pics. :TU: Today was kind of cloudy, the sun would pop out once in awhile so that's when I tried to take most of the pics. Bare w/ me though, I still haven't practiced w/ it as much as I wanted too, so all the pics are not the best of quality but I think for the most part they turned out pretty good. :bglasses: Here is a picture of the front
A picture of the engine bay. I cannot stress enough of how much better it will look once the 350 buick motor is sitting in there. :TU:
A pic of the front seats...and it definetly needs newer front seats or at least those need to be reupholstered/or could possibly get some seat covers. Not decided what I want to do yet w/ the interior. I was kind of thinking along the lines of buckets w/ console floor shift. Hmmm :Brow:
...But the rear seats are immaculate! Perfect, w/ no tears, no rips, and even no sign of wear at all! Just like the headliner and everything else in the interior excluding the sun cracked dash. :TU:
Here is a pic of the speedo/guages. Not a very good picture, should have shun some more light on it for better pic quality. ou:
Buick "Knock-Off" hubs. I love the looks of them, but I had rather have buick rallyes or even better yet, cragar ss's. :TU:
A picture of the 231 V6 oddfire motor that once motivated the car. Only has 103k miles on it, was starting to smoke a tad bit on startup. It was a healthy motor otherwise for having as much miles as it did. A month or so before the swap I took on a later model V6 camaro('99-00 maybe?) and beat him. :bglasses:
Now here is the motor that is going in the car. 1970 buick 350-2. Bone stock, w/ 62 k original miles on it. Got to test the car out that had the motor sitting in it and it's got plenty of power, very surprising for a stock motor, especially a 2 barrel!!!! I think I will really love the car when the 350 is in. :TU: The pic is kind of blurry on it, I will try to take some better pics of it sometime this week along w/ better pics and more pics of the car.
Congrats on the purchase of the camera. Looks like a good project you have going there. I love those front ends. Don't forget to scrub the heck out of the engine/engine bay and get it detailed while you have the motor out.
Thanks Eric! If my part of iowa ever gets some decent and warmer weather, I will definetly try to clean it up a little bit. The front end of the car is more filthier and more dirty than the pics show, but I don't think I will worry about cleaning the body untill the motor is actually in. It's not very hard to get the car dirty when you have a grease bombed motor coming out of it.
Here's some more pictures, this time I got a better shot of the front end(notice the BOP license plate :grin: ) :
If the weather is nice this weekend as it's supposed to be, I will try and get a few "good" motor pics. :TU:
It sure is a beautiful day here in SE Iowa! Good enough to take some motor pics! Well, here they are, enjoy:
I have "TWO" center consoles, complete for the '73-'77 Century/Regals that need a little work, but if you decide to go that route, let me know.
[QUOTE='77 Regal]I have "TWO" center consoles, complete for the '73-'77 Century/Regals that need a little work, but if you decide to go that route, let me know.[/QUOTE] Thanks for the heads-up! I am definetly considering it whenever I do decide to do a "full-resto" on the car! :TU: By the way, is that console by the blue one red in color or another "off" color? I can't tell, but either one would work as I can always die the color the way I want it! Once again, thanks!
