    Had a longer post, but I guess most the work I've done is nontraditional and illegal here...

    I’d love to see more! I’m at work on a ‘54. Built a 400 for it out of a Grand Prix.

    Why would he bother taking all the time to post and share pictures and information if it's going to get moderated to smithereens? It's a waste of his valuable time.

    I know its somewhat taboo to discuss here but are you happy with the way that it drives/steers with that front suspension? thanks!

    i couldnt say yet. barely driven it. the air ride leaks more than i would like, and the lack of power steering will take some getting used to...so to be determined....

    There's nothing wrong with a Chevy but I'd rather have a Pontiac, good job
