Performance:
I did a frame off overhaul, much more than a restoration myself. Better than a new car. I spent 6 years, 3 to repair the body replacing both quarters, trunk floor and braces, most floor braces, inner and outer rockers front pans, modified the trans area for the 6-speed and all mechanical work.  It has 502 ramjet,D&D viper 6-speed,Jim Meyer tubular front end and four bar rear suspension, Dutchman rear end, nodular 9inch rebuilt by Mark Williams, Rick Rod shop 22 gal stainless tank and all lines, Baer brakes with hydroboost, Keisler hydraulic clutch kit, Dennys HD aluminum driveline, Griffin crossflow radiator with dual fans, 3" stainless exhaust with Doug headers electric cutouts, autowire wiring, March serpentine belt system, leather interior, Vintage air conditoning, Ididit Chrome Column with rack and pinion steering and much more. I did all the work except outside paint and the interior done by someone else. I have put 19000 miles on this car and love it.
