Default Mopar anyone? Lashway's latest project!

Just to show everyone that we aren't completely bias towards GM, I felt compelled to post some photos of one of our current projects in the shop.

The car: 1967 Plymouth GTX

The engine: Original 440 bored .040" over, Forged Eagle rotating assembly and other goodies Bill @ Fuzion Coating helped with all the powercoating on this block and its accessories which looks bitchin!
Also had the 727 trans rebuilt which should be nice.
For now it will be N/A, but a little N20 may be on deck for this bad boy!

For those of you that have seen the car in person, you know that it is clean, clean, clean. Aside from some minor custom paint in the engine bay, the car will retain its stock appearance in and out. Can't wait till it's done!

If anyone has an older vehicle that they want to bring back to life let us know! We love the old stuff!

Some photos:








Doing my thing..

That's one sweet GTX, really!....

Man I remember those rides back in the day....

They always looked great "in the rearview mirror" of a "LS6" 454/450
'70 Chevelle, or 396/375 "L78" '67 Camaro.

But it really is great to see you two Gents workin' on the classic stuff.

btw, Contact me if you need Car Specific info on the '64-'74 Classic Musclecars, especially GM's, but I think you already know that.
