Well I drove the car from pa to fla with no problems. I was surprise since my front suspension is really shot. I started the tear down. I have to restrip all my self etch primer off and I well prime it with a epoxy primer. I am going to converted to hydro boost brakes. I am also going with a big block and a t56 trans. I have a long ways to go.
