I also swapped out the rear for a 69 Nova posi I found in the Recycler. Looked at some information about brake swaps and put rear discs in from a Caddy.

At the same time I was doing the interior which was nothing special except for adding some vintage air to get rid of the old bulky AC unit. Some new carpet, panels, paint and cheap racing seats and I called it good.

Care to share the info of this "up and coming" tranny guy? thanks!
