Glad the original owner cleaned up the rat shit from the engine bay after originally listing it. Good score and rare car!

Hehe yeah it's a catchy nickname bud!

What a great find mate, I agree the paint needs to go and so do the bumpers, not a fan of painted chromed bumpers. That motor needs to go as well to a new home to finance a more suitable Mopar 6 or 8 I think . Keep up the good work looking forward to see this progress. Cheers from NZ, Phil

@lucashenriquepedrosocabello pretty cool hey, I think reports I've found are 150 were brought to australia, and only 78 kits were installed onto aussie cars, my figures are hazy but all I know is its rare and cool! Haha

How good does that Nissan engine sound in the Mexican

Hey Sonny, I'm not sure what you mean, road warrior as in the Mad Max series? If so I believe it was a Ford Falcon coupe, but I wish it was in the movie 😄

@@TwistedMetalCustoms you find some nice cars,I’m into the Falcons and Rancheros been messing with them for 40+years enjoy your up loads.

Being a rare model, you would at least have to look at original colour. You probably have buckleys of finding the original engine, but at least go a Chrysler engine, the 265 with RT specks go pretty hard. That Nissan engine would be better suited to some other project.

Yeah the factory is like almost an olive green kind of, doesn't look too bad, we are thinking about it, Jess my partner actually bought the car so it's up to her on the color, as the engine goes, yeah for the rarity I also agree engine wise, possibly a nice 360 with 5 speed box would be nice, but it will be further down the track, we want to spend some time on the road with it first haha

Magic car but why paint a mopar with a Hyundai pastel?

It was done quite long ago, fashion changes as often as my underwear, monthly haha, so it was probably the best thing since sliced bread back then, and each to their own on the builds they do, but it's done its time in bellflower so time for a change for sure haha 😄
