History
i purchased it from a wrecking yard in maryborough qld. registered it and has been my daily drive for the past two years as i prepared an engine and transmission for it, hunted for parts and restored a chassis.
Modifications
305 chevy, TH350 transmission, front disc brakes power steering, bucket seats gts dash and T-bar centre console. Trans rebuilt with a B&M kit to street spec. Engine bored 30 thou. oversize with Procomp hyperutectic flat top pistons, moly rings, scat crank and rods, Comp Cams retro fit roller cam kit including lifters, pushrods, springs, caps, retainers and roller timing gear. Comp Cams s**** in rocker studs and pushrod guides. 1.5 and 1.94 stainless valves. Comp Cams roller rockers. ARP bolts throughout. Heads ported and polished. Ceramic Performer extractors into 2.5 stainless steel twin exhaust. Holly 650 spread bore carb.
Built a rotisery for the body from 60mm RHS and a bit of flat bar and round bar, works great, rolls the body 360 degrees with ease, saves a huge amount of time and effort. Well worth the cost, about $100. Did all the work myself except bore the block and cut the valves, pretty happy with the results, paint work is a bit disappointing in a couple of places but have to be happy with my first attempt.
