    :Welcome::Welcome::Handshake welcome, the car looks nice... seems like a great one to grow with... if your on a budget a 302 would probably be better... everyone told me to go 302 nooooo i wanted my windsor.. if i had went with a stroker 302 i'd probably be driving my lil cyclone right now... so me being on a tight budget and 3 years down the road i'm sooo close ... anyway have fun and be safe....
