Please say yes you seldom see stock around here anymore oh yeah, new gas is a definite, have to drop the tank to drain it, that's going to be a painas for the interior, the only things i think i'll do to it are 3-point seat belts and different gauges, and maybe eventually changing it to a different color lol
May 10, 200718 yr Author Damn Tom.........io expect that up and running for the SSA meet when I come home.and BTW Whats the other plans as of now?Ji will try and as far as future plans: 350 carb'd small block, 5 or 6 speed tranny, rebuild the suspension with poly bushings, subframe connectors, disc brakes, probably a 3rd-gen Camaro steering box
