Recently acquired this gem with the intent to put a little pep in its step. Started out drilling out a set of Pegasus wheels to give it some attitude. Next this had to come down a tad.

In the power department we couldn't use the stock boring 350 so in congress the LS1 and T56 from the 02 Camaro.

For correct placement in the car, the motor had to be moved back
