Talking 74 Caprice Classic Convertible

Just picked up this 18 foot long beauty! This is my second project car (1st was 81 olds cutlass supreme), it needs some major TLC with the interior and ragtop needs replacing but this Donk is a real treat to drive, especially with the top down! Its obvious the car is nothing short of a boat but I was amazed to see it measured out to 18 feet! I guess thats why the 400 small block (which roars) is all torque and only 150hp.

Nonetheless, i'm gassed to get this Donker spiffed up to the max, maybe even throw 24's on it (currently on 20's) and as much as i was looking forward to throwing some candy paint on her, the matte black is seriously growing on me.

Welcome to the forum.

Looks like you have a nice canvas to work on. Nice 90s era Mustang sitting there too.
