FACTORY...


    This baby was born on June 7th, 1977 in Detroit with a base sticker price of $6748.61. She came with the following options raising the price to $8219.70.

Power windows, T-tops, color keyed floormats, rear defogger, air conditioning, sport mirrors, 4 speed transmission, tilt/telescopic steering wheel, AM/FM stereo tape deck and leather seats.

ABOUT THE OWNER...

    Hello, my name is Nine Myer and I'm from Albuquerque, NM. I was born and raised a biker. My dad is in his 70's and rides a Harley V-Rod dailey and my grandfather (RIP) rode Indians. I bought my first Harley basket case in 1976 and since built several other bikes including the one I own now. This "classic Amercan muscle car" was purchased by me in Sept of '04 to compliment the Harley in the garage and try my wife's patience. Actually, she bought the custom floormats, stereo, carpet and pad among other things.

     I have to admit that I feel like one of the luckiest guys in the world..... I have a fast Vette, a wicked Harley and an understanding wife that looks sexier than both of them put together.

AFTERMARKET...


    And here's what I put in her.......

Borg-Warner 4 speed tranny with a Hurst Compition II Shifter, Hooker headers, Cragar 5 spoke rims with locks, Sony XM/FM/CD player with remote, power antenna, AudioVox alarm system, GP tracking system, Grants leather steering wheel and strobe showlights.

WHAT I'VE REPLACED...

Stainless steel-4 piston racing calipers, brakes and master cylinder. New tires. New Flowmaster dual exhaust. New door panels, hardware and seals. New heater controls, console and armrest/emergency brake cover. New carpet, pad, sound dampner and custom made floormats. New T-top seals, window tint and leather seats.


WHAT'S IN THE FUTURE...

   My wife and wallet have told me to slow down a little, however I still would like to add chrome Hooker headers with 3" sidepipes. Also a real L-88 hood with scoop that attaches to the carb would look be way cool. And last but not least, a turbo-charged engine of somewhere around 700HP. (crate or custom still to be decided) That should push my investment well over 25 grand. Oh well, that's about what I spent on my Harley.

DONATIONS ACCEPTED ;)
