Title: what do you think of this? Post by: Jim Ratto on November 03, 2008, 21:36:26 pm 1967 sedan, stock height, black or VW zenith blue. Bumpers pulled off but otherwise stock, Enkei/Flat 4 5-spokes in matt-bronze-grey finish, polished lip.
165/15 Vredstein classic radials in front, new Goodyear Blue Streak vintage race tire on rear. 88mm Mahle x 74 or 76mm welded, good orig German case, 40 x37 welded VW head, FK87, on-the-edge CR for pump gas, 40hp stale air shroud, short manifolds, 48 Webers, 010 or Vertex, tucked "1978" style QPs on vintage merge header. Should somebody build this? Title: Re: what do you think of this? Post by: javabug on November 03, 2008, 21:42:36 pm Stock height would be cool, but I think it will require some work to get it to sit "just right"—the saggy butt '67 look would not be good here. Also tire combo will be important. I think your combo above will work, but would have to require a test-fit for sure.
Much easier to picture in black/red intrerior than Zenith Blue, also. Title: Re: what do you think of this? Post by: Jim Ratto on November 03, 2008, 21:44:50 pm I kinda like the soggy bottom boy look of a stock '67.... ::)
I'd love to see some new cars come around, straying away from the current trends. If I only had any money..... Title: Re: what do you think of this? Post by: javabug on November 03, 2008, 21:48:00 pm I agree it should be built.

Title: Re: what do you think of this? Post by: Jim Ratto on November 04, 2008, 00:53:23 am how about forget stock paint and do it up in Sunoco Racing blue/yellow/red like Donahue's 917-30

Title: Re: what do you think of this? Post by: Sam K on November 04, 2008, 01:54:05 am Sounds like a nice car that shuoldn't be too expensive to build. I paint it L630 VW blue, though, but I'm biased. ;D
Title: Re: what do you think of this? Post by: John Rayburn on November 04, 2008, 01:54:25 am Your stock weight, pump gas compression, is going to be a turd with the 87, Jim.
