Hey cupcake, where have you been?

Here's a car that I brought home Friday. Should I build a g-series wingcar out of this one? It's a big block 400 car and everything works, even the tach. I've been driving the wheels off of it this weekend. It's my new ratrod. I promised my wife I wouldn't paint it... for now. Not bad for $3500.

She says that I have to stop at 25 cars.  :icon_smile_big:

It was originally gf3 amber sherwood metallic, but someone repainted it a few years ago. If I paint it it's going Sassy Grass Green, but I really want to leave it alone. All of my other cars are too nice to drive around on the streets. I've wanted a reliable beater for a while now and this thing fills the bill perfectly.

I won't be wronged, I wont be Insulted and I wont be laid a hand on. I don't do these things to others, and I require the same from them.

Hotrod excuse my typing,Ihave fingers like sausages!!!!!lol, I type fast and forget to check my spelling, or I hit other keys by mistake, the name of the company in question or disscusion is DAYCLONA, run by M.Goyette that I talked toodose seem like a nice guy, says everything is available to build a daytona, which I almost did! but I traded my 69 charger last minute for a sweet 71 sat w/ a440, anyway he says he has about 85-90% coverage on the 1970 superbird as far as parts, and is working on completeing the remaining tooling on the bird parts, I'm more interested in turning my 71 sat, into what he calls a g-series car superbird a 71 bird, monets tight rigth now, but I'd rather wait and send Mike my car to convert! I'd rather have someone who's done this before, do it!the 71 bird is really cool!, I have some pics,my favorite one is this one, I'm hoping to send my car to Mike this fall 2008

Although I don't have much time anymore to build complete superbird kits ..if someones in a jam and needs a fiberglass superbird hood and fenders with or without the '70 air grabbber option I may be able to assist.

Zinc: Pretty much anyone involved with Dayclona has been banned because they really just can't seem to find a way to get along. They also liked registering multiple accounts to talk themselves up or make it look like someone else agrees with them. (Multiple accounts are expressly forbidden in the registration agreement and Terms of Service.) The sad part is, very few people ever get banned but these guys took it to a whole new level. The really sad thing is that 90% of the people who end up getting banned are vendors so what's that tell you about the customer service you can expect? I've seen Dayclona's parts and cars and they are very nice. Mike has an incredible amount of knowledge that I'm sure we could learn from but I can't deal with all the hate mail and fighting that comes along with it because of his (their) attitude. I cannot feel the least bit sorry for them because they ignored every warning I ever sent.

Sarcasm detector, that's a real good invention.

Don, I remember the time frame you said a kit would run to get out but if your able to make the Bird hoods separate, when would they be availbile and how much?  Same on the fenders.  I'm going to try to find some decent steel fenders but if not will your glass fenders need any additional hardware, bracing, etc. to mount or are they bolt-on ready.  I'm not in a jam for them but I plan on driving mine frequently and your quality has been said to stand up to regular driver use.   Hopefully I'd be looking somewhere at mid-summer time frame to install but some others here may be interested also.  Thanks, David

Zinc, If Mike builds your car then it will most assuredly be SEMA show material. I have a few third gen b-bodes and have thought about building a g-series car more than once. I just have so many cars to maintain that I tend to have to spread the dollars around without much left over for special projects.

Don, I started to mention your parts but haven't talked to you in a while. I still haven't built Sandra's bird with the parts that I bought from you. Too many other projects.
