All wiring dash some interior put back in place. I had planned on putting a 440 in her but $$$$ i put the 340 back in ,other then a new oil pump and tranny filter was all the motor needed the 340 was done over late 80's. this plan will get me closer to having on the road this spring.Had the car running this week,next nice day she maybe blasting up the road the way you see it now..
Waiting for my fender i need to arrive, got to paint doors, trunk lid, hood, valences , fenders etc..then exhaust, probally a repaint once all the car is all together..

Great color! Kind wait to see some pics with it in the sun!

Are you going to paint the tailpanel in between the taillights black?  :clueless:
