Year and Model: 1979 El Camino Conquista
Engine Specs and Modifications: Oiginally a 305 car, Had a '67 327 in it when I bought it, am installing a Mildly built 350
Drivetrain Specs and Modifications: TH350C currently stock frictions & Bands, Mild shift Kit, stock GM 10 Bolt (One-Leg wonder).
Suspension Specs and Modifications: Stock (For now)
Exterior Specs and Modifications: The Body is in overall Good condition. Minor rust through in Radiator Support. -Keep the Patina for now
Interior Specs and Modifications: Crying for help, Still looking at the options
Electrical Specs and Modifications: Stock, and in working order! no plans to change yet.
Since I've bought the car, I've pulled the Engine, Cleaned the compartment, and thought a lot about the possibilities, and, to make it a Street-Legal car, will take more time than $$$. So I have decided the best way will be the long route! Make it run, and drive it!:nanawrench:
So I'll pick up from there,
Empty Body,
A few days later, I get some time to Bolt the Engine & Trans together, Bend some new Transmission lines,
And slide it Home!
And, start assembling brackets.
I still have to paint the P/S Brackets, Pump, & Pulley. But the hood is on, and she's almost redy to fire!
More to come,
Pete
