Sure it's ugly now but it won't hopefully look that way for much longer. It's a 1987 Olds 442 (real). Plans are for a 400-450HP 403, 315-335s in the rear and maybe look into a C4 Corvette IRS *drool*. I'd post some pictures up on here but it's really not worth of taking up any bandwidth or whatever just yet.

Thanks guys. I myself can't wait to get started on it but I need to get rid of a couple other projects first. Semi-actively looking for a 455 (I know I said 403 earlier but I think for 450HP the 455 maybe a little easier to massage for those numbers). Always wanted a G-Cutlass since I could drive. If it wasn't for the fact it's a 442 w/t-tops it'd probably still be sitting in the back lot of the shop I got it from.

Hoping to eventually get a Ford 9" swapped in being as I have a housing wasting space as it is but that's after it's actually ready to drive, at least around the yard.

Nice to see some other NC'ers around here. The knowledge on this site is incredible. Already doing some searching on the site, reading old threads and it never fails to amaze me the info that can be had here.
