$3710 Now I still have a ton of parts that I am going to sell once I know the car is all good. I am thinking that I have 500 to 800 bucks in stuff I can make a fast sale on. Witch will bring us back to the 3 grand mark. I new 2 weeks into this that we were going to go over it, but there are some things you need to buy new for safty reasons. I am going to drive my wife around in it, so I am not useing old tires and brakes, parts like that that should be new.

....Looking good! ... Why are you putting in a small block Chev instead of just leaving in the Olds??? Bill
