Nothing is impossible, so Dan and the team are challenged to come up with a design that has never been seen before. In contrast, the complete restoration of a 1951 Studebaker truck to a world class show vehicle is a car-lover’s dream. Dan’s worries are realized and the friendship is pushed beyond its limits when Charlie buys his own parts and his dream is much bigger than his budget. He has concerns when his best friend Charlie asks him to convert his 1965 Ford Mustang fastback into his dream car. Episode 103ĭan Short knows that cars can cement friendships – or break them. With no parts available, the team have to build everything from scratch if the car is ever to run again. The restoration of a 1926 Velie looks to be more straightforward, until Dan learns that the car hasn’t been driven for 50 years and was stored with gas in the tank. Then, Kyle starts chopping and the team becomes stuck between a near-impossible conversion and a task that is too worthwhile to abandon.
Dan thinks that a 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS is the perfect car to get the program started. In their honor, he started Wounded Wheels, a non-profit to make classic cars that are handicapped accessible. Episode 102ĭan Short is a former Green Beret who saw friends wounded in combat. Then, he finds that Bill’s budget is only $20,000. This would normally send Dan running for the hills, but the car is Bill’s only connection to his dead father. Bill is an internet mechanic who has torn the car to pieces. While the team wrestle with the near-impossible Corvette restoration, Bill brings in a 1931 Model A Ford that his father converted into a hot rod. The problem: James needs the car for his wedding in less than two months. So, when James brings in a 1963 Chevrolet Corvette AND he wants Dan to add the world’s first convertible split window – the job is too cool to resist. Have any question please ask, selling this car AS IS and any offers will be considered thanks for reading this.Dan Short is the owner of Fantomworks and a fan of classic cars.

Windows for the doors does not show but they are both there and both cranks up and down well.All lights including turn signal and stop lights work.All 4 heater control levers and heater blower works.One horn works, one missing. As for all the other missing parts if you don't see them in the photo that means I didn't get it and it does not come with the car.The tunnel carpets you see in the photos are gone, I took the picture before I replaced the shifting parts and when I tried to remove the carpets they crumbled apart so they got trashed. The engine runs pretty nicely but I think the injection pump needs to be adjusted after its been driven for a while and a good time will be when cylinder head bolts get torqued after 300 to 500 miles or equivalent run time.ĭoes not come with a hardtop, it does not show in the photos but I have a windshield for this car.

R/R crankshaft with flywheel for proper balance at machine shop.Replace wiper motor (used), free up wiper linkages (wiper blades missing).Replaced trans shift bushings all and 2 pad cushions under shift lever. The work I did to get this car going is as follow.Replace gas tank (Dansk) and electric fuel pump (Carter), R/R injection pump to free up rack to get engine going and found the engine vibrate too excessive so had to do the next thing (possibly the reason it was abandoned). The engine has been replaced with a rebuilt engine from a 280se sedan 13098012062617 engine and I think it was done as part of the restoration.86.97mm 1st repair size pistons, camshaft and rocker arms, crankshaft rod and main bearings, clutch disc and pressure plate/throw out bearing has been replaced also found trans mount front brake pads to be in new condition.Exhaust system looks like it was worked on but it needs to be realign for the hangers to work properly.
