Well after some harassing from Chad and a decision that being a snow plow wasn't the greatest job for a mustang I decided to buy a winter car.
This is what it looked like when I got it after about 4 hours of cleaning on the inside and outside
next Chad and I went to bucks and stipped off the whole front end as you can see from above it needed to be replaced. All I can say is I'm glad Chad's a strong boy because we went on an all you can carry day
Here is a picture of the car all stripped down
Next came the paint and bodywork phase. here is my boy painting the car for me. This was a long night we took it to the paint booth at about 8:00 p.m. on Saturday and started sanding it and then had to mask it and then paint it. We figured it wouldn't take us that long. Wow were we mistaken it took us until 8:00 Sunday morning. 2 People just aren't enough to make things go fast!
And then lastly this is the finished product. I have just over 500 dollars into the car including the price of the car. It need a new carb and i put new plugs and wires and a tune up into it as well. I also picked up the set of cragars at the Majestics swap meet for 100 bucks.
The wagon is Chad's winter ride! The malibu is no mustang but it can drift fairly decent and goes pretty well! Should get me through the winter anyhow!
