Not sure if I should "Mad Maxify" this old girl or have it painted and a new vynil top put on it. I'm torn. The body is perfect minus the hatchet job on the roof and there is very little surface rust. The interior isnt bad and it only has 50,000 miles. I wont be able to fix it up for a couple years as we are moving soon and buying another house. However, i could start the Mad Max theme today.

As much as i love this car and my crown vic i have descided to get a crown vic limo next. I could always fix it up nice i guess and flog on this one. I sure am glad my buddy has a tire machine...


What would you do?

>>16930961

>>16930964
It's already a factory big block; a 6.2. I may be adapting an Edelbrock carb to it, though.

>wasteland weekend
Come on down and have a good time.
>>
>>16931018
Might have to check it out. Looks like fun.
>>
>>16931003
I would kill for fuel injection. Limping it to my dads shop tobight to rebuild the fucking carb.
>>
>>16931098
Oh, it doesn't have fuel injection. It had dual Stromberg carburetors. I'll either go with a 4100 or 2150 to replace it if I can't sort it out.
>>
>>16930843
Clean this car and OPs car and make a fortune as the most requested Uber driver in your area
>>
>>16931149
I have either delt with carbs or fought fyel injection all my life. Never had a car payment tho. Its stressful af but having my pops around for a hotrod mechanic has truly been a blessing.
>>
>>16931400
Must have a new car for uber. Work 50 hours a week already. 99% of my hick town has never even heard of uber. Pretty much you are right tho. I started a worm farm and 4 days latter realised jim carey in dumb and dumber had a worm farm and drove a limbo. My life is a meme. Oh well. I enjoy DD people home from the local bar for free.
>>
It looks pretty mad max already, I would just fix up the mechanicals and call it a day.
>>
>>16930437
Just strip off the rest of the clearcoat. Fix the roof so it doesn't rust through from the leaks.
>>
>>16930437
drop in a big block and make it a touring car

I'm doing a mad max style build.

V8 swap and aiming more for a Mad Max, not road warrior theme.
>>
fix it proper
>>
>>16930437
>"Mad Maxify"
No
Just no. Don't. that's cringy as fuck. The car already has "the look" and if you keep it like it is it will be a distinctive and neat ride. Otherwise fix it up.
>>
>>16933462
this, trendfags basically ruined the whole idea.
>>
>>16933462
>>16933488
This. Jalopnik had a "battle cars" article today that included a lot of Twitter/Instagram circle jerking.

Sorry Jackal, but you old Buick Century has officially jumped the shark.
>>16930437
Get the sheet metal fixed up nice, put a modern truck motor in it, put comfy seats, cold AC, and a nice stereo in it.

Then take friends to national parks or something.

Make it a maximum highway mile eater.
>>
That's hot as fuck. Fix that baby and it'll be worth a metric shit-ton one day.
