    Thanks guys

    This car started out as a 318 3 speed manual, I got it as a 318 auto with a 4:10 posi as I was told (no gear tag) and it is a posi, and she get up and boogies fast,but not much for the top end. all the wireing was fried, rewired with a painless wireing harness, what I want is a 440 with a tremec, but for now I will probably settle for a 440 auto for now till I have the cash to build the motor and tranny the way I want. goal right now is to get it up an running, I stripped it three years ago, and have been hit by some pretty shady people, and have had to move to another state while the car was stripped. so I am dying to get back on the road and have some fun. :cheers:

    Not to bust your chops, but why didn't you do the blackout thing behind the grille?

    That looks very nice. Good job!
    I like the rims, what size(s) are they?
    I'm still trying to figure out what kind of rims to put on mine.

    well the blacking out of the radiator support, I kinda went back and forth on it and i still might  that would be easy enought to do. I have been looking at some of the cars for sale on ebay and I have seen both painted and blacked out. I was worried that it might look goofy, I still have to look for a motor as of yet so i have plenty of time. the rim sizes are 15x7 and 15x8s torque thrust II

    Looks super so far.  :2thumbs:

    Unless you're checking out original survivors, Fleebay is usually a good place to see how cars have been done wrong.
