    progress

    I wanna do something different with it.. make it more of a modern classic.. for sure I am goin with the 302, but I want a 4-5 speed tranny.. automatics just dont do much for me..

    I did discover the gas tank is rotted on the inside.. I am goin to order a 16 gal fuel cell and mold it in..

    I did reline the trunk with rust inhibiter and sound deading spray.. but then it started to rain... (gotta love oregon!)
