Plan is to run the original 318 with a donated Edelbrock intake and Holley carb. We'll have to change kickdown components. A mild cam and lifters might be nice. :naughty:. I think I have a set of headers stashed some where. And then there's Exhaust. :faint:

Did you get the carb and intake yet?

This is all right Fishn, you are giving me a preview of what my car is gonna look like  :bigsmile: Great work by the way. I am looking for a box big enough for the door panels right now. At first it was hard to let the panels go but now I am excited to be a small part of this extraordinary gesture  :woohoo:

Here's todays progress. Hood trimmed in. Hinges and hood latch brace painted. Doors installed. As far as rust repair, I'm down to one fender. Plan to work this out over the weekend.  We've already started to detail some of the components to be installed later.
