Additional Comments: As my vehicle is somewhat modified from stock it is hard to give an accurate idea of what was fitted before delivery and what was added later. What I know is that I am the third owner of this vehicle in Australia. The first owner did a fairly poor resto job on the car hence I have it in the body shop at the present.Mechanically the car currently runs a BOSS 351,Toploader 4 speed and 9 inch with mini spool.It also has chassis connectors,a substantial scatter shield and a tailshaft hoop.Future plans call for a fuel injected 5.0 litre,a 5 speed, either a T5 or Tremec and a saner final drive with 4 wheel discs. Currently the car runs Dragway Indy wheels, 8s on front and 10s on the rear.Tyres are 225 and 265.My plans may sound a little,okay,hugely counter productive,but I intend to drive this thing as often as I can and with fuel prices tne way they are economy is an issue.
