Put a good amount of work into it, not showroom condition but who cares I love it, looks don't make you go fast.

Thanks. The only thing I really want to fix is the hood, it needs to be realigned, I think it was hit in the driver side corner of the hood, I might have to heat up the cross bar hinge underneath and try to straighten it out, the hood is in decent shape otherwise.
 
A lot of work into that C , why the passion?


:welcome:...............


The car has potential, as soon as I seen it I had to have it, my first car. Might not be considered a classic or worth $50000 but how many newports do you see anymore, most of them are used for demo derbys or just rotted away. Some people might say oh it's a boat and too heavy, my CR-V weighs 4000 pounds too. Everybody has chargers, challengers, a handful of cudas, camaros, etc.... This is my ratrod, this car can take a beating. Everybody has a car they belong with this is my pick.
 
I had to ask, some have theirs because its what they grew up in, what grand pop had, the guy down the street had one when I was five......they loved it when it arrived on the lot forty years ago. You are well on your way, welcome to the group ........................................!
