Wow, great reply's thanks! I read the reply about the 241 Red Ram, and I have one, well, two of those as well, so that is an option, however, both need rebuilt and the 341 is almost new and runs great. You all are right, it will have a hemi, sb mopar, or even a forcefed slant 6, but never a sbc!!!!

I'll run down a bit of my plans and info on the car. First, it runs, drives, and is complete except for the speedo, (anybody got one!??!) the chrome is great, glass is good, all the window cranks and ashtray, and heater works, it was quite the find! Not a spot of rust, and the little 217 purs away like a, well, old kitten... Since it has independent in the front already, I was gonna yank the springs and shocks, go back in the stock setup with an airbag spring coilover, and a disk brake kit for the original spindles I found in a street rod mag, 9" and fourlink the rear with the same airbag setup. With the sheetmetal so clean, I would really rather not chop it up, save for firewall or inner fenders or unseen stuff like that. Except for welding the fender seems, the lines will stay the same. Paint scheme is mucho caliente too, but we'll wait for you all to see that! I will post some photo's tomorrow of it in in current state.

Any input and criticizm of my current plan is welcomed, like I said, my first street rod and I am excited about all the replies already! And by the way, I'm a pretty good hand at fabrication and have an equipped shop with a lift here at the house, so lets hash out what needs to be done, and I'll get off this thing and on the welder! Thanks again everyone!!!!! Good Night!
