History
Bought it in Houston with the original 302 and 3 speed and brought it back to SoCal. Installed power disc brakes, power steering, replaced the 3 speed with an AX15 and after about 5 minutes of driving promptly blew up the motor. Currently looking for a replacement motor.

Personally haven’t done much modification other than what Ive mentioned above. Right now priority is making it mechanically perfect, then I’ll start adding to it/making it look pretty

Looks pretty to me right now! What are you thinking? 351? Stroker?

Sticking with the 302 for now, don’t think I’ll be going anywhere fast in it so didn’t really see a need for the extra displacement… But who knows I might have a change of heart down the road

Dropped it down from a 5.5 to a 2.5 inch lift with a 1 inch body lift. also put a new set of 33 in K03’s on it. Had the interior completely redone and went with a rubber mat over carpet or bed liner. Just finished it up this week and it’s been a blast, drives like a new car. Looking into having a radio installed and a larger gas tank.

Love to see these things unrestored or at least still with evidence of having fun. The interior looks really nice.
