I really like these cars in a nice coat of paint,but,in primer,it does bring out the inner beast.They look just plain mean.

Nice car,though.What are the plans for it?

Nice work. Looks great :D

Is that 351C going to be EFI or a 4bbl?

i am getting a lot of stuff for free from the guy helping me put it in ex. block, heads, cam, carb, oilpan. i just have to pay for any machine work, pistons, and a new crank, the old one is junk. i should not be spending anymore than $1,000 on it.
