I let my helper loose on the bumper bracket for some ideas we had for back there, we spent at least one day most every weekend over the winter working on the car and it was a great experience getting my buddy away from the xbox lol

Thanks for the kind words guys, this project was a long time coming and there were times I thought I wouldn't be in the spot to get it done, my mom always questioned why I had the car in the garage in pieces and I parked out in the snow all these years, the folks at the paint shop did this up for me

I am running a big bearing 9" with Moser 31 spline axles, a daytona pinion and I was lucky enuf to find a real N case for it. Not that the N case is better than what's available in the aftermarket but it's got a cool factor. We narrowed the rear a bit to get some dish on the wheels by reducing backspace which ended up making wheel selection tricky with a lot of the modern wheels today not having the 3 1/2 ish backspace I need.

The torque converter is a TCS piece, they are outta Langley BC and are suppose to be top notch. Stall should be around 2800-3000 and rear gears are 3.50's

My seats were mostly shot but we did use the tracks and welded them to the new seats and studded them so seat removal are slick

I got put in contact with a guy that somehow ordered a 3" chromoly driveshaft for his drag car that wasn't the length he needed. Was exactly what I needed for length so that was the one piece I actually got a smoking deal on, I have 1350 yikes so the drivetrain is overkill for the power I will be making
