    I found a one owner that is the same as I had 42 years ago! Looking forward to working on it. Need to put black stripes, RWL tires and a 302 in it. Need advice on changing from a 250CI 6 cyl to a 302. Thanks, Paulthepal

    Welcome.

    A 302 swap should be straight forward with the V-8 mounts, etc.
