I looked around Nashville for about 6 months for a good 67 or 68 body. I want a 351w, c4 and 8.8 drivetrain. All 6 of the cars I looked at in the 3000 to 4000 dollar range were rusted out totally unrestored pos's. I bought an I6 car solid body, only needing a rust patch on the doors for less than any V8 car I looked at. ANY car I bought was going to get COMPLETE drivetrain replacement. A buddy put Wilwoods on his car and gave me a Granada disk set up. 37 year old springs need replaced. Wheels that I want are not that common (16x8 tt d's). Stock radiator would not do for my engine combo. The way I see it, I was replacing everything but the motor mounts on a V8 car, so what did it matter?
