"I- think they're really good motors-personaly " put a 350 auto' in with it , just need to save about 5 grand to get the" titanium' white and "pearl "ghost flames she wants now. man those new paint prices will kill you ( 3 & 7 stage) but, what you going to do?....Krylon??! That should be the new poll: HOW many ( when you first started out) tryed the Krylon thing ? Know body would tell the truth!........................................... is there a picture of your 63 wagon on here? sure like to see it, I don't care if it's under construction or setting on blocks.
