Default 68 firebird 461 stroker daily driver

well, this thing has been with me for some time, and its finally picking up tons of steam. when i bought the car years ago and drove it across the country it had a 350 pontiac and bondo everywhere.

I've since then replaced darn near all of the car. new interior, door panels, seat covers, redid some of the dash with a radio delete and such. replaced the crappy saginaw 4 speed with a ford 3 speed toploader (toughest trans ever), replaced the fuel tank, the rear leafs with heavy duty 5 leafs, front springs with hotchkis big block camaro lowering springs and the 350 with a 461 stroker. replaced the stock sway bar with a hellwig 1 1/4 tubular one and did ls brakes on the rear, and just recently did the front brakes with c5 corvette brakes. all brake hoses are braided stainless and the driveshaft is a used nascar 4.5" piece with 1350 u joints. 65 chevelle 12 bolt with moser axles, 69 camaro ss eaton posi, 331 gears and moser 1350 yoke.

car has been driven daily since the day i bought it, the first week i had it i drove across the country with it in february, and have been sriving it since, and sometimes towing things with it.

last year it got hit with a uhaul truck and I wound up buying a complete ront end from another guy who was converting to a one piece front end.

i've cut out the quarters, replaced thee drivers door with a mint original, reskinned the passenger door and replaced all 4 hinges. when i do the taillight panel and the fenders and front bumper i will have replaced the entire outside of the car...

but thats how it is sometimes.
