Story timmmmmmmmmmme!

 

Bought it new June 69 Hyview motors in Cambridge ON. Drove it on street for a year and a half ( no winter ). started racing it in 69 L/stock then started doing engine work. latest engine is a 355Cu inch 12:1 compression, crane .619 lift cam, 292 chev angle plug heads 64cc, Holley 750 double pump, hays 3200lb pressure plate and disc, mr gasket V gate, summers bros. front drive distributor, hooker headers, 12 bolt diff. with offset posi unit (reworked). When raced had 5.86 to 1 ratio zoom gears. Muncie trans ( nash sliders ). I built this latest engine in 1978 and has more power than old one that broke which ran high 11s , new one should run mid 11s or lower. stopped racing in '78
has 22328 miles on it now. detuned same engine and has been in and out of storage since 81. had no time for car ,kids growing up etc. now i owe it a new life. it is called the FBI
Tony

 The forward dist and rad hose kind of threw me.

 Do you plan on restoring the car, even though it has such low mileage?

Fu$#ing big Indian?

 i have been working on it and trying to get parts and have been slowly restoring it as best it can . but will not be 100% original as many of the parts have been changed and lost in time

Fu$#ing big Indian.. yeah thats it  

yes i am looking for trim decals, emblems, taillights etc. and yeah the chassis and body is solid as anything
