The rebuild is finished

Well, it took about 4 months, but it is done finally.

Stock LT1/T56 (couldn't get the cam I wanted) 3.70 9 bolt rear disc with correct master cylinder/prop valve. 4th gen radiator/fan setup and here's the pics from the beginning.

The day after I brought it home



Paint isn't too bad after sitting outside for 5 years



OMG The interior is gone



No motor either



It was a true 350 car

NEXT

Complete interior, all but the seats and door panels came from my '86 which was totalled



Shifter looks right at home doesn't it



My $85 set of Ultimas



The car was missing the driver door and hatch, so that's why a red one is on it....but the paint turned out very good for sitting out for 5 years with no lovin'



At least there's a motor in there now



4th gen radiator support



4th gen emissions label



3rd gen clutch reservoir mount (and yes, I'm going to clean up the wiring)



And hopefully, alot of cars will be seeing these
