Almost had one, had buckets, posi, little rust, engine was built with rollers [not cheap] but once I saw pic of it, I had to say no. If the engne was a recent build someone went through allot of trouble to make it look like it sat in a JY for 30 years. I was also suppose to drive it from the E coast to Ohio, Spent the money on a PAE built trans. [The dude who is getting 500/500 using all stock iron parts on a Buick 350. Heads, intake, 2bolt block, over 1000 on forced air. Being the turbo 3.8 were just a 350 missing two cylinders, and they get 700HP out of them easy with mods, he put 2 n 2 together and figured it out.]
Heh - yeah.

I actually want a bench seat in the front, original auto car. I'm going to replace the steering column and cut a hole in the floor for the shifter (I want to put a TKO-500 in it) like they did on old trucks.

Plan is to put a 350 SBC in it, making at least about 250 hp, and 350 tq. Redo the entire drivetrain. Then I'm going to paint it Honduras Maroon



with a black interior.
