engine which is almost ready is a 283 chevy with 3 dueces and the old solid lifter fueler cam in it from the 60's. 700r4 transmission is rebuilt and ready to be installed. 3.00 rear gears in the 9 inch. Decided to put in a 5" drop front axle in place of the 4" drop that came with it plus take a couple spring leaves out to get the front end dropped way down. Going with a mechanical latch on trunk and will be installing it today. Waiting for the exhaust hedders and steering column to arrive so I can run the steering linkage next.
