new find
There are a few mods there for the car like the racing heads and a offroad crank and pistons and cam w/roller bearing and the hooker headers
But my my aim is to make it just like it came from the factory. it is just to nice a find to mod out. It is all numbers matching now and the mods would just ruin that at my age (70) speed is not needed I have (4) vetts now, but this has been my dream car ever since i got back from Vietnam |

400 horse air car is a fantastic find, especially in that condition at that price.
