rocky5517 Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 That 67 GS in Florida- why are the valve covers wrong? Maybe someone swapped engines? Sure looks like a 67 except for that. Still looks like a decent buy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kreed Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Hi Bryan -I totally agree as I am all for restoring as many of these great cars as possible but this car would need more than the majority of people would even consider tackling. All the body panels need major work/replacement and floor pans are gone front and back . Trunk is gone . Front winshield is toast as is passenger quarter glass. Not yet sure about the 425 MW code on whether it is locked up or how good it is . QJ carb is filled with corrosion and mud dobber nests. The BS transmission and Positraction has been already promised for a 66 restoration . I will pull out anything that is salvageable and certainly willing to help anyone out if they need miscellaneous parts/trim , etc. Thanks Ken Reed ROA 14945 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EmTee Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 That '67 was one I was looking at early this year before I found 'Goldie'. It dropped off the net before I got to the point of seriously considering it, but apparently it didn't sell as those are the same photos. I believe the asking price is also unchanged.

That '67 states "All original" - but the all original emblem post holes were filled (Newer Paint Job) - missing original wheels and wheel fender trim. And that's just on 4 photos.

Chimera Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 Thanks brother, yeah Im looking for a BS/GS 66 Transmission (not posi), because a previous owner of the Shadow 66 swapped out the BS for a BT.

RivNut Posted October 27, 2016 Author Share Posted October 27, 2016 If it's only the speedometer that's off and the transmission is working, you can replace the gears in the trans to make the speedo correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chimera Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 I am working to get the vehicle to factory dual quad 66 specs.

RivNut Posted November 5, 2016 Author Share Posted November 5, 2016 Interesting comments on the 63 from Detroit. "Clear coat" nope, if that's original paint it's lacquer. "transmission shifts in all gears" nope, that's a Dynaflow. I'd be leery of a car with a 5" tach prominently displayed. My 2 cents on that one.

Wood wheel with horn bar and cap. http://kansascity.craigslist.org/pts/5853321064.html Ed, I have a question on the Riviera wood steering wheels. Some of them that I see for sale online have the metal band in the middle of the wood circumference and some only have the wood grain on the outer rim with no metal band in the middle. Also, some of them have the two spokes going straight across, while others have them angled down. What years used which steering wheel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
