I am new to the board. I bought a 1978 Caballero from a friend. It is an original 350/4spd car, but it has been thoroughly modded with a custom engineered suspension/steering using many custom brackets and circle track components and brakes. It also has a ZZ3 engine, remote oiling with cooler, circle track pan, quick ratio PS with cooler, huge radiator, electric fan, cool can, and other engine mods. It has close ratio muncie, with a line lock for the front brakes, a new Lakewood scatterproof bellhousing that I need to install, hurst shifter, and driveshaft loop. The brakes have an adjustable proportioning valve in the car. The rearend has a custom suspension as well with discs. The exhaust has ceramic hooker headers and is fully stainless with highflow cats and heim-joint hangers. The hood is harwood fiberglass and the front fenders are custom made fiberglass to fit larger wheels/tires. The battery is an optima that is mounted under the bed. The car also came with 20 wheels and slicks. Most of the wheels are bassett racing wheels but 2 of them are 3 piece 16x9.5 bogarts. The car runs awesome and the body is straight, but needs new paint. It was an Arizona car, so there is absolutely no rust. I got the car for a completely unbelievable price. One bad thing is that the door panels, glass, and window mechanisms were totally removed. So a couple night ago I bought a 1978 El Camino for $220 so I could just swap the doors and some of the interior pieces. The El Camino also had some decent 15" aluminum wheels that I will use for street wheels--since I bought the Caballero so I could have a race (time attach/autox) car that I could take to the track and haul race tires/tools/gear without having to tow it. I hope to learn some things about these cars from this board. I have never had a G-body and haven't had a GM V8 car for a few years--my last one was an '01 Z28 6spd hardtop 1SC that I bought new and then sold when I bought a bigger house.
