Here is the latest project, a car that will require a good bit of refurbishing. It is an original small block car that has had a 383 installed. The swap was done years ago and a quicky type bondo and paint job appears to have been done around that time. The car, while still presentable from 20 foot, will require quarters and floorboards in the future. The rusty cheapo headers and homemade dual exhaust,glasspacks and scavenged pipes from multiple cars, have already made the scrap pile. I installed a pair of manifolds and a 2.5" flowmaster exhaust system. I would highly recommend this system as it is mandrel bent and fit perfectly. The cars runs well but is in line for a disc conversion and suspension rebuild over the winter.
