*When i got it home i rebuild the 800cfm q-jet carb,because it was full of dirt,rebuild the gastank.
*Fixed up the rust with much welding around,change chassis parts and with upgrades,built crossmember for dual exhaust, swapped out the small v8 with a rebuilded and upgraded bb engine.
*Headers
*Now the th350 tranny is dead, rebuilding a th375 tranny (basic a th400) but with 350 outputshaft.
*8x15 4"bs front with 245/60. and Rear 10x15" rebuild from 4 to 5"bs to get the 295/50 tires inside the fender.
*New controllarms in front, polyrethan bushings around.
*New lower controllarms rear,swapped out the old upgraded controllarms with homemade POM bushings and welded brackets ,same with upper arms, and with some gbody polyrethan axlehousing bushings.
