I finally got to drive it! w00t!

took it for a spin around the block to blow the cobwebs off. felt great. Very light steering. The brakes are scary. Time to order disks.
putting all new wheel cylinders in today just for now and safety's sake. She'll get lowered this weekend. Time to install all these poly bushings.

He're how she's lookin now.

what engine did you go with ?

A "140" but one thats been worked over. Bigger cam, ported heads, headers, built carbs, electronic ignition. etc.
It's supposed to put out over 200 hp.

Sounds and runs great. The powerglide MUST go though. That's next.
