Pics of my 66 K coupe after cleanup

  • Here are some pics of "Muskie" showing the finished product in 1986 and some pics of her today. The motor is still running strong with 117,500 miles on it, she drives absolutely perfect. Except for the upper A arms, idler arm, water pump, timing chain, oil pump, clutch and two U joints the rest of the mechanicals are 100% original (it does need upper ball joints again). The interior is still 100% original (some split seams finally in the driver seat) The paint is still mostly original (well maybe 60%) and shines nicely.


    1986 finally done!


    Today a little dirty but raring to go! (I promise it has Texas tags now)

    Leaving Jersey heading to Texas! (Thanks Amos!)

    I got a little carried away, but its easy I grew up in this car!

  • This is also a really good example of the Metuchen VIN stamped block. They certainly did not make it a work of art.:)
