Long story short, I watched the classic movie "The Blues Brothers" a few days ago, and seeing the '74 dodge sedan blues mobile got me thinking. I remember when I was much younger ( birth to 9 yrs. old) when I went to my grandmothers, there was always this huge landyacht of a car sitting under the carport.
Well today I went with a friend of mine to look at the car. (av6g6). The interior is in amazing shape, no tears anywhere on the seats. It has a 360 v8. Its a sedan, and my god is it a big car. I couldnt stop grinning just thinking of the potential of that car. I talked to my old man about it today, and he said if I could get it running (hasn't been moved since 2000) that the car can be mine. With some cleaning and buffing, the original paint would shine like brand new. Thre is no telling how many years it has been covered sitting up under the carport.
I said all of that to say this, what do yall think about this idea? Hopefully by draining the tank, new oil, and new coolant I might be able to get her to turn over. With a simple tune-up, there is a possibility of having her back on the road. Its a beast of a car, and you just don't see them anymore. I don't have pictures yet, but I will soon. In the meantime, your opinions (or pictures you happen to find) are welcome to be posted.
