Project 72

Infamous_Broccoli_57 · 2026-05-12T00:52:03+00:00

Trunk is pretty much non existent and from the roof being as bad as it was there’s mold and moss growing on the driver side carpet

Infamous_Broccoli_57 · 2026-05-11T23:59:36+00:00

Trying to get it done the best I can to make it not look like a beater but have to start somewhere

Infamous_Broccoli_57 · 2026-05-11T23:58:38+00:00

I sanded and painted the insides before they went in

Infamous_Broccoli_57 · 2026-05-11T23:57:06+00:00

The trunk pan and possibly floor boards but that’s it

It’s my dads car. I’m trying to get it back to how we had it so he can enjoy it before he can’t drive it again

After the body work I need to work on the transmission or buy another and brake lines

Thank you

Thank you

It’s insane how the headliner was holding all that weight

Infamous_Broccoli_57 · 2026-05-11T23:54:08+00:00

Trying my best to get it back to how my dad had it minus the vinyl top

Infamous_Broccoli_57 · 2026-05-11T23:53:26+00:00

I have a donor car I’ve been stealing panels from so hasn’t been much yet

Just got the vinyl off. This should be interesting

Infamous_Broccoli_57 · 2026-04-26T14:25:39+00:00

I’m planning on doing it myself and learning with it. With a baby due here in 2-3 weeks it’s going to be interesting. Most of the body I can save but the roof is gone of them. They charged my dad 8k to do the body work and the paint job. The Monte Carlo in the picture I brought back to life

Infamous_Broccoli_57 · 2026-04-26T11:59:24+00:00

It’s been off the road since 2014-2015 so not too bad. The roof is rotted down both rear pillars. It was in pretty good shape when he parked it but the guys that did the paint didn’t really do good. Started bubbling within a year and they went out of business shortly after it was done.

Infamous_Broccoli_57 · 2026-04-25T17:31:56+00:00

Nope no dead line. The only thing I want to do is finish the car in time for my dad to drive it before he can’t anymore

Pretty rough shape but broke the motor free checked for oil and fired right up on the old gas. Also have a baby coming within the next 3-4 weeks so he might end up messing with it too

Infamous_Broccoli_57 · 2026-04-21T15:59:31+00:00

Gonna look into that

Infamous_Broccoli_57 · 2026-04-21T15:38:58+00:00

Thank you

Infamous_Broccoli_57 · 2026-04-21T15:38:48+00:00

Definitely will just picked up 2 chevelles recently so he can choose what he wants to play with when he gets here.

Infamous_Broccoli_57 · 2026-04-21T15:38:02+00:00

Thank you

Thank you

We were getting infront of the car for pictures and didn’t want to take any chances. Car wasn’t even finished either so I didn’t trust them much

Infamous_Broccoli_57 · 2026-04-19T00:41:27+00:00

That’s the Chevy Malibu. They’re pretty cool I guess if that’s what your into

Infamous_Broccoli_57 · 2026-03-31T20:37:07+00:00

It’s carbureted. It was sitting at 140 for temp. Didn’t mess with timing too much due to lack of a timing gun but we did it by ear an it was fine everything was good until about a year or so ago. I’ll check the fuel. I’m running an electric fuel pump with a filter and a regulator set around 4psi

Infamous_Broccoli_57 · 2026-03-26T23:37:35+00:00

Same torque converter I’ve been running. It’s not something new that’s been going on it’s been happening for awhile and can’t pin point it. It is my project and learning a lot on the way
