Another new fella here, been lurking for a while. Recently picked up this one owner 65 convertible, 289 with Cruise-o-matic. She was restored in the mid-80's, but will undergo modernization in my garage to bring things up to date. I've only been able to drive her a few times before our cold weather kicked in up here in New England, but I'm looking forward to getting her out a lot more in the Spring.

Some gorgeous Galaxies in here. @Enzod...I love the stance on that sedan for some reason. It looks baaaaad (in a good way)!!

Good Lord that is GORGEOUS, Macpherson!!!

Steve, that Custom 500 is a cool-looking car! I don't think I've ever actually seen one. Looks like it was going after the Cutlass and Monte Carlos from the same era.

Haywood...that's a good looking sedan you picked up. Doesn't seem like it needs much "wrenching" at all!!

Kiwi....good looking '67 you got "down there". Welcome!!

bsa...really dig that fastback (beater edition, or not!)

 

[Dakar09]

That's awesome, Lynch! What did you have to do to get her running?

 

[Dakar09]

That's gorgeous, Taylor!!

My66...love that ride! What do you have underneath? I just ordered a full TVS kit from Hotchkis for mine. Still waiting on a few more parts to come in from them.

Sounds like a good swap, Axe! What are your plans for it?

Just acquired this 63 R code. This is a great website....very helpful! View attachment 165642 View attachment 165643

The R code is gorgeous.....doesn't look like it needs any help from Jim Lowrey

What is that up front? '66 GT40?!

 

[Dakar09]

Definitely looking like "Nascar from the 60's", Axe. What happened to black with the white top them?

 

[Dakar09]

Gorgeous car, Belgian! Welcome aboard!

@S1b That thing looks sinister! I can picture it pulling up in front of NYC deli and 6 mobsters getting out, lol

Here is my '65 convertible...a one-owner car out of Mississippi! Her 289 is getting a bit tired, so a 390 build is now underway

Figured I'd do a Before & after comparo due to some updates over the last few years...

BEFORE: (when she first got to her new home)

AFTER (as she sits right now):
