Default picked up a new daily driver

just thought id share. is pretty much stock other than being a clone. its the original 350/th350 drivetrain with a cam, intake, carb and headers.. it runs and drives great.. its really driving me nuts that i told myself i wouldnt start modding it though! i think after the camaro is back to being driveable this one may go under the knife! anyways heres a few pics if your bored.

How can you own it and not start playing with it? I couldn't at all. I have no self control that way.
Nice car, looks great!

It takes a 'real man' to cut up a perfectly good car... LOL

If it's a daily, you have to at least throw an overdrive at it...

Nice score, '70 Chevelle is one of my favorite cars. I hope to have one some day.

thanks everyone for the positive replies.. since this is my only means of transportation as of right now.. going under the knife simply isnt an option.. another reason for leaving it alone is that is "pretty much" unmolested. its hard to find nice clean muscle cars these days.. this car was putted around and kept in a garage for 31 years.. 75k original miles. it was from san antonio and then a guy in oklahoma bought it. he got it painted and refreshed the drivetrain about 8 years ago and left the rest alone. the undercarage only has flash rust and i cant find any evidence of body filler or rust ont he rest of the car. i was under the dash just looking around and it still has all the insulation. the wiring is untouched and the vacuum lines for the a/c all still look brand new. it still has all the original splatter paint in the trunk and everything. i only got it because a guy was getting a devorce and didnt want his wife to get it! haha.. i may put the 700r4 out of my camaro in it if i get a wild hair.. but as of right now she only tachs about 2300rpm on the highway..
