Here's some more basics on the car.

The engine compartment wasn't bad when I bought it but there have been quite a few hours of nit-picky low budget detailing mostly involving time and elbow grease.


The exhaust system wasn't very good so another of the early mods was to install the brand new at the time ceramic coatred headers and a FlowMaster exhaust kit with 2.5" pipe, a cross-over, and single dual inlet/outlet muffler with tail pipes in the stock location.


The car to the best of my knowledge was delivered with multi-leaf and 12 bolt posi unlike Renner's one-legger. You can also see the corner of the FlowMaster and the ultra-trick Monroe Magnum shocks. Springs are Global West -2" stiffies. I stripped and undercoated most of the car shortly after I bought it with 3M Rubberized Undercoat and also sandblasted and painted most of the brackets and rearend and replaced the OEM fuel and brake lines.


The front brakes were something to talk about.............in 1969.
