I've had it for two years, and have been restoring it from the rust bucket it used to be. Still needs some work, but at least it's drivable and fun. I'd be a lot happier with some engine and drivetrain mods, but that can wait.

Wow, she's a beauty!

What engine does it have under the hood?

I love the wheels, the colour... hell, it's all pretty damn nice. It'll be a while before the black paint on my car gets as shiny as that :)

I just finished cleaning up the wheels yesterday. Put the chrome and everything on them.
It just has the stock 350ci in it, only modifications are a Holley Street Dominator intake manifold, Holley 650CFM carb (I'll probably get a Street Demon 750CFM later this year), and dynomax headers. I'll probably change the heads, pistons, transmission at the end of this year if I can save a few more thousand.

Nice. Definately go for the carb upgrade. Those oldschool muscle car engines react really nicely to that kind of modification.

What about a set of new gauges? Your interior looks to need more work than the rest of the car... :)

Very Nice . . . are you planning to show it? Or just use it as a cruiser?

The gauges are in decent condition, I just have to put the interior in. I have a new carpet, the seats have been redone, and all new door panels, etc. I just haven't figured out how many wires I need to run for speakers, so I can put the carpet in. Also, I need to get the springs and solenoids set up in the doors so I can get the door panels on.

Mostly for cruising, but I may enter it into a show or two.

I'm guessing you're referring to my car with this statement, even though you aren't really insulting anyone... No one has gotten TETANUS (at least learn how to spell, at first I thought you meant tetris) from being in my car. You have be cut by rust to get it, and well, there isn't any rust in the entire, nor is there anything to cut yourself on. You should really learn about cars before you start posting on a car website, right now you just look stupid.

BPx , I wouldnt take guyt to seriously. Look what he drives. And hes saving up his pay cheques from McDonalds to get all "Fast and Furious". I'd spend the money on another 2 Litres and another four cylinders.

Yeah, he's more of the comic relief of the site. Every place needs the angry 13 year old without any real intelligence.

I don't think real intelligence is the correct description -
he should be more correctly described as a nonentity.

The cretin
