BOB LUNDWALL'S 1964 GRAND PRIX - 100 0330

Bob Lundwall was building this 6 speed Grand Prix when the term "Pro Touring" was just a glimmer in Jeff Smith's eye! I'm going to hound Bob for as many photos of this build-up as possible. For those of you that recognize the name, Bob is the founder of RetroMotive--the company that brought us 15" rims for our 8 lug drums!

You can also see the later style trans crossmember. That helped with the design of the headers and worked with a urethane trans mount. Again, the trans is a Richmond 6 speed. It's bolted to a Lakewood steel bell housing. I'm using a Centerforce Gold clutch. I may have gone a bit light in the clutch and maybe should have gone with the Dual Friction unit. For the Richmond trans to fit I had to totally replace the transmission hump in the front floor, moved the crossmember back a few inches, and reconfigure the clutch linkage. I used the original drive shaft with a larger turbo 400 style front yoke.
