History
2nd owner. My Uncle factory ordered it on 28 Feb 1987. I told him the day he brought it home that if he ever decided to sell it, to call me first. I never really though he'd ever sell it. Took him 28 years.
Now, I have plenty of plans for Elsie, just gotta find money and time. :-)

Modifications
Drivetrain
Focused on getting it to run reliably. Replaced all the computer sensors. Finally gave up and removed at the CC crap. Added a Mountain Man Q-Jet, GM HEI, and an MSD6A which replaced the HEI internals. Also added MSD 8.5mm wires.
Compression test results were great, vacuum is strong and steady.
