rxlancey 74 galant colt build

[rxlancey]

So brought my colt last year and used it as summer cruzer. Car ran ok and diddnt need much to get her on the road. Over easter my wife took it for a drive one day and left it at her brothers house were i pickd her up knowing id be bak ther later in the night and would need a way home. All went to plan the next day i woke up had a cofie and drove the old girl home parkd on the drive and went inside for a couple hours till it lookd like rain was coming then thougt id better put it in the shed. Thats when things got interesting, after driving into the shed i noteced more smoke then usual (alot more smoke) and lookd back to find a large oil/coolent puddle on the drive. After seeing that from my lil mint cruzer with only 66tho miles i doe what any respectd old schooler would do and startd pulling things apart. The eng bey was full of oil had made a rite mess and i suspect its coming from head gasket area. So out with the old and in with the new.

Iv now stripd the eng bey and am starting on a 13b convertion im havting to do more then i hav on any other project to fit it but cant wait. So far iv cleand and delomd eng bey ad starting on brake line re direction while i wait for a dumby block and gbox to surface then i can start inlarging the tunnel and fabicating some x members. Looking at diff options atm and am thinking of going to a lite ace if i can get one with lsd? All piks are on my phn so will upload as soon as i can and will keep updating as the project goes on
