Ditto on that, why I don't fix to much on my death wagon but drivetrain n crap that I can swap into a Lark when ever I come across one.

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.

Its a good probability. I'll probably get to where Dragoneye, Spike, etc. are when I've been here as long as they have right now. They've all been here a little over a year and a half longer than me, so it adds up to about the same.

Check your average posts/day. Mine is about 8.5 right now.

Well, I double posted once without thinking about it and a mod came around 5 seconds later and merged the two.

lol


And I don't have that many "lol" posts either. If I did "lol" to everything I found amusing, I'd have 10,000 posts by now..
