Nice looking car, Welcome!  I'm in Jennersville, PA about 30 min. SE from you.  Are there any good shows/cruises up your way?  Let me know.

Thanks again guys!
Had the car for just over a year now. The exterior is exactly how i got it. I do love the sublime lime.
The interior was done, but not to my liking. everything was reupholstered including the headliner, but not done right. Im missing some pieces to the seats and I need to get the correct headliner retainer bars to get it correct.  Id also like to redo the gauges.
Its a 440 crank, 509 Purple Cam, M1 Intake, Holley 750 double pump, Schumacher Headers, March Pulleys, 727 with TCI Pan, 3800 converter and valve body
8 3/4 Rear Narrowed 4" 4.30 Posi-Traction w/Strange Axles.
Not sure of cruises or shows. Never really have done any. I work in york where I see plenty of ads for cruises. And Im sure to make carlise this year and see what i can find.
