Just saying hello.

Posting on my mobile so I won't write a novel here.

I have had the car since 18 and I'm now 30. Been building it as I go. It was a body on restoration. Many lessons learned, lots of heartache, but those were all overwhelmed by excitement and passion.

You have an awesome ride. 70 Chevelle may be my favorite muscle car of all time. What are your remaining plans for it?

For now-

Id really like to convert the vacuum assist to a hydroboost set up. Also change my 3.55 gears to 4.10 or 3.92s along with heat treated axles.



There are little things here and there to fix and or make better.

How are you liking those brakes any other pictures? Also, what backspace did you end up with? I am looking at this same setup for my 66 chevelle. Any other pictures would be great, never gets old looking at them.

What's the new wheel and tire combination, size wise?
