Car started out life as a little project that I was going to fix and sell but fell in love with the fit and finish of the car. Built a 347 and has been freshened up many times. Been threw numerious T5’s and I have plans for a automatic overdrive in the future. It has served as my daily driver, race car, street/strip car and is currently just a side project and a spare time toy. I will be driving it more this year and going to try to be some shows, races and a lot of street driving.
