      Froggy Bird69

      Hello everybody,

      Well yes, I'm from France, nobody's perfect...

      I just wanted to show you my Bird.

      It's a 69 with a swaped 455, I have it since 2006 and as I'm a Pro-touring fan I'll try to do what I can to make it looks like one.

      I'll start to work on it this summer, Jully & August...

      First of all, I'll have to rebuild the gearbox and make the full exhaust pipes... Then, QA-1 front & 225/50 R15 Toyo R888 to start...



      After that I'll see what my budget will be to go further...

      Here are the pics... Hope you can see them

      Regards
      Gil

      Welcome. Looks great and am interested in more pictures once you start modifying.

      Just helped the son of one of my best friends get a 69 Bird to the Netherlands. It will arrive June 13 in R'dam.

      Thanks, I will when I'm starting, no worries...

      Where did the bird comes from ? US ? A friend of mine did this for a 69 Mustang, from US to France... With the papers & stuffs it's just a nightmare...
