My new project! 71 Stingray

[fleming23]

Went with a friend today to pick up his uncle's 71 Stingray.

This car has been sitting for the past 6-8 years and the condition is on par with what you would expect. My friend,- and owner of the local speed shop, owned the car previously for a few years before selling it to his uncle around 2001. The car has been driven only a few hundred miles since.

It is a matching # car with all original drive-train.

I am not sure how far I plan to take it but I imagine by the next year or two it'll be in a similar condition as the Chevelle.

This will be "Lindsay's car" but lets face it, that was just my justification to buy it

The plan right now is to get the car running and driving (we did pour fuel in the carb and with a jump box it started right up and idled like a kitten!

The car as found, under a car cover sitting under a car port.
