Thanx for all the replies thus far guys. The guy actually wanted $1500 for it, but since I drove so far, he knocked off $200 for fuel and dolly rental. If I would have been local, he wouldn't have budged on the price. He also gave me an extra ralley pack. Anyone know who refurbishes those things? My plans are to drop my 333(327 bored .040 over) and t5 in. It has been professionally built, it's never even been started. I'm wanting on my engine guy to dyno but it's bout to be racing season so he is pretty backed up. If everything works together the engine should have 360-400 hp at the flywheel. That paired together with the t5 and a 373 or 390 rear gear should make it a fun driver.
The first set of wheels that were in the pics were s10 wheels and the others were sonoma wheels. Oh and the rear frame rails, floors, etc. are good. No rust except a lil under the tops and lil on the bottom of the drivers door, I'm happy, no complaints at all.
Me and my dad actually pulled the current motor and transmission out today along with the front clip.

What would you want for the grills to 37334. It doesnt matter about the year because I'm gonna put my own custom twist on em. I'll even take some that are rough as long as all the mounting tabs are still intact, one of mine are broke.

Thanks for the good luck wishes and compliments on the cutty fellas. Drivetrain is out and body should be off by next weekend. I'm gonna wait til I have accumulated plenty of pics and have plenty of progress before I start a new thread.
