Heres an Impala we just finished. It went to auction and fetched 32,000 dollars. We got the car for free then put around 20,000 into it.

Yes, It was a lot of work and it paid off. Im now working on a 67 Chevy Corvair. They have rear mounted engines. This one is going to be hard due too the way its built.

Almost a year. The car went to Nova Scotia for the paint job. We did the rest here in Gloucester.

Uh, where did you get that car?

I'm not even shitting you.

I want to know.

Don't take it the wrong way, I'm just wondering.

Edit: Nevermind. You see, I was just wondering if it was the one my father sold a couple of month's ago. Turns out that was a '61. P.s. I'll love you forever if you could take some during pictures while doing the restoration. My dad LOVES Corvairs. He owned one way back in the day.

I'll keep yah updated.
Wish i had taken pictures of a 1969 Jaguar we got from England. It was hard for my to believe it had a HEMI motor in it. I did however like the steering being on the right side. Felt comfortable on that side.

naming rights, isuzu and holden are different companies, izuzu just made and designed the car for them.

so rather then pay royalties they just changed the name.
