Default Thinking about tubbing the rearend

Once in a while my dad gets a hair up is A$$ to do something. He is the type to leave everything stock. Lately he has has a change of heart. He haas a 66 Mustang fastback which was a 6cyl. Now he wants me to order the front suspension set up to drop a 4.6 Cobra setp in it (the car is just a primered shell right now).
Anyways I have a customer that brought his sons 88 Firebird in with a no start. the car is a POS. The fuel pump not working and the tried to do it themselves by cutting the floor behind the seat (words Just Cant describe what they did). It is bad and I WILL have to post pictures. Well they need a sending unit assy, tank and the floor replaced. My dads idea is sell them everything from my car, including the floor. We will use the monery to tub my car. I have sub-frame connectors that I need to install. All I need to do is sell the rear end to get a Dana 60. If the guy go's for the my plasma cutter is going to get a work out


i Will Post Pics ASAP, you gotta see this.

Almost forgot, I have a 65 GTO sitting the back of my shop. It has a Strange 12bolt Rearend with a spool. Not sure about keeping the spool and dont know what gears are in it. It also has a TCI turbo400, it was set up for drag racing.

I'm going to use the rear end in my car. I'm going to sell the 9-bolt rear thats in my Firebird now. I will sell the goat. It is a complete (minus the rearend), I have some new sheet metal for it, the interior is in Miami. It was going to be a project car for a friend of mine but other things came up and he does not have time for it anymore. The car is Conneticut, so it has cancer. if anyone is interested in it make an offer. he does not have much into it.

My customer with butchered Firebird said go ahead and fix the car. so it looks like mine is getting cut upand tubbs installed
