- Background
- I have owned this car since 2008 being the second owner. This still has the original split thrust 7 bolt block that still has a lot of room to bore, has 197k on the body/chassis electronics. Texas/California car so there is no rust other than small surface rust/dust spots. Almost all black interior with the exception of the OEM grey cloth seats, and under-dash which is grey. The car sat for about 8 years after it being parked in my garage in 2013. I had a rebuilt motor sitting next to it, but i never got around to getting it back together until about a year and a half ago. Since I started building it, I have replaced every single part on this car with brand new oem or aftermarket parts. Trying to make a clean oem+ build!
