I saw a post on FCBO about this car a while back and read through the post and I turned out to be the “local yokel” that purchased it. I will say that I absolutely will not put a Chevy engine in it ha! The car is in very good shape and is very complete. I don’t remember his name but I bought from a guy that lives near Milton, FL and I’ve had it for about 2 years now safely stored away in my shop. I have not really done anything with it up until recently. The car was very difficult to roll and it turned out to be swollen, gummy brake shoes. In the process of upgrading the brakes, I decided to throw a Sure-Grip in it and some new axles with Green Bearings. I plan on putting discs on the front brakes, and I’m working on building a 408 Stroker to put in it. Somewhere along the way someone swapped out the steel wheels for some Cragars which tbh I am not a huge fan of. I would like to put steel wheels and hub caps back on it. Also, the wiring under the hood is pretty crispy so I’ll repair some of that also. Other than that, I plan on leaving it exactly how it is. It’s a great car, I will try to make an effort to post updates and pictures as I go through it and get it back on the road.
