BUILD THREAD You know she's a keeper when...

[TURNA]

Looks like a good hit on the door.

Can it be straightened?

 

[Wageslave]

I don't think so. I can probably make it better but since it doesn't have a roll-down window, nothing is really affected.

Pontiac 400 in there would make a sweet sleeper!!

I was actually offered a 307 that could go with it also, but it did not have any accessories with it, and finding them might be harder than it was worth.

it might depend on what the keeper will donate to the build.....😀

a series 2 3800 would be nice also.

See my build thread- Operation Lipstick on a Pig
I'm going to start installing it this weekend.

Holy hell. After reading that thread, I don't think I have the fortitude required to make that 3800 happen. I kinda want to reuse the existing computer with whatever I put in. I am kind of wondering if I could put a 4.3 in and have it fuel correctly without a bunch of modifications.

I did the hard part for Ya! I don't think those 1st gen carb computerus are good for much beyond what they already do. A simple LS swap isn't too hard, but you have to buy aftermarket parts to make it work.

I've done the V8 swapped G-body thing already and while it is fun, it would be cool to do something different with this one.

Wipe that steering wheel down with 3M Adhesive Remover. That will clean it up.
