About this Current Vehicle:

I bought it 8 years ago for a $1000 in decent condition. Bought it from my brother who didn't want to put the money into it. At one point people told me to junk the car. It isn't worth it. Man did I show them! I have done everything myself except the paint.

Factory Options:

Factory 4-speed. Dealer installed t-tops very rare. No AC. Factory posi 3.73.

Exterior Modifications:

No mods. Just has been all redone. Fresh paint new tail lights. Wheels have been redone also. I wanted to keep the stock look. Which I think makes it look unique. You don't see to many of these cars have the stock look. There is always something cowl hood, aftermarket wheels, or an exotic paint job.

Interior Modifications:

All stock but redone carpet, seats, panels, head liner etc... Still need new dash, and a new windshield. And I want to change out my gauges.

Performance:

Ok where do I start. Lets see for starters the block is a 4 bolt main completely machined and bored .60 over. Had the crank balanced. Keith Black racing pistons. Chromoly rings. Comp cam and lifters. Dart iron eagle platinum heads. Cat roller rockers. MSD distributor. Edelbrock RPM intake. Edelbrock 750 carburetor. Headmen headers and cats. Electric fans. K&N air cleaner . Topped off with a Edelbrock Air Cleaner and valve covers. Just recently purchased Ceramic coated headers and magnaflow stainless steel x pipe exhaust

Suspension/Chassis:

Every piece of suspension has been redone. Up front Hotchkis 2'" lowering springs and KYB shocks.

Drivetrain:

4 speed muncie trans M21 with a center force dual friction clutch

Electronics:

Right now there is no stereo in it. I have to rewire everything which I'll be doin soon. It will be hooked up before summer. Then I'll let you know what I installed.

To-Do List:

N/A
