64 Cyclone
Hello everyone, I just bought a 64 Cyclone. My 64 Caliente project is going slower than i thought (you guys should have told me, haha) and I wanted a car to drive for the rest of the summer. This guy put an ad on this site for the Cyclone. It's a factory 4 speed. My sister and broinlaw lived about an hour from the car in Washington State. They went and checked it out for me as I am in Boston. They gave it two thumbs up. I should get it in about a week from the shipper. Here are a few pics. Why do my pics come out blurry when I resize them? Thanks, Jim

Thanks, Roy. Did't want to rush the painter or engine builder. I want to get it right the first time. Want to take my time over the winter and have it ready for spring. Here's acouple more pics. Jim

Hey Boss, it showed up yesterday. I got it to my shop last night. The car looks so much better than the pics. Started cleaning it out today. I have to put the radiator, fan and pulley back on, get a battery and the points are junk. Car has been sitting since 1974. Hope to have it running by the weekend. Post some pics later. Thanks, Jim

Great, if it is better than it looks, it must be spectacular! Because it looks great in the pictures.
