Title: 76 hawaiin project
Post by: Dmax07 on July 16, 2012, 08:17:10 PM

Figured I would go ahead and start a project thread! Little progress tonight... Come to find out not only is the hull cracked but motor has a slight knock to it. >:( so out for a tear down and rebuild!

Hate being lied to when trying to buy something....

Was told this was a high comp. Fresh rebuilt motor( even heard it run before buying)... Got it to somewhat idle yesterday and heard the knocking. So we pulled it done today and found this... It's just a completely stock 460 with .60 over cast pistons. Looks like it's time to build it our way. More pics to come!
