I'll snap a couple updated pics tomorrow. Attached is what it looked like the day I brought it home. Interior in pretty decent shape, motor ran well but was ultra slow- 22's on the G-tech. A little tuning and I got it down to 18.70's at the track. Not bad I guess for a smog plugged stock 305 with 2.41 gears and 4500 ft altitude. The car is now dropped 3" in front and 2" out back and has 225-60-15 V rated tires on 70's Z28 wheels. I want to do the B-body spindle 12" brake swap and throw on some 16" wheels next, then get some gears out back and a 700R4 for a little more go-go.
Also attached is the parts car I found ultra cheap cheap. I put gas in the carb and put in a battery and it fired right up (!) and drove up onto the tow dolly. Had a bad tranny and had been sitting for 3 years. Packed full of mouse poop everywhere. Lots of rot on the rear 1/4's and the interior was hopeless. Took off the front clip and pulled the 350 SBC that had been transplanted in. Not bad for $75 and get it out of the yard! That good running 350 is now in my 76 Suburban and the warmed over 406 from the Burban is in the white wagon.
