34 3-Window Project
Getting this one dug out again and inventorying parts. It's been in the family since 1971 when it was bought for less than I'd have to pay to replace the headlights now. I figured I'd better get going on it before I'm too old to enjoy or forced to go electric. Trying to use a lot of the pieces that have been sitting on the shelves for decades. The body doesn't need any bodywork (no tubbing, no cutting, still has all the original glass) but the rear fenders might get a little massaging to iron out a few wrinkles. Planned motivation is a built 400hp 327 small-block backed by a Muncie M-20 or M-21 4-speed (5-speed thoughts are bouncing around my head though) and an '57 Ranchero 9-inch rear-end. Transverse leaf springs on both ends with an original axle up front that was dropped in the '50s or '60s. As I go through old coffee cans of nuts, bolts, and brackets, I've found a few pieces that I'm not sure what they are. Two are pictured here in hopes that some of the '34 experts can help me ID.
