Very nice. My dad took me to London Motor Products several times when I was a kid.

She's a beaut!

Have you done any handling stuff underneath? The stance and tires make it look like it could rip the corners pretty good.

Thanks no suspension upgrades have been done. It has a 20 year old restoration with about 9000 miles on that. One of the first things I am going to do this year is change the 2:73 gears to aroun 3 1/2 or 3 3/4 with posi.

I'd love to do 3.55's or 3.73's with a GearVendors OD.

4100lb cars don't exactly get off the line with what you'd call "Punch" with 2.73's do they?

Make a post about the gear upgrade. Is it a 12 bolt?

Why not a 700 or 200 Trans? Gotta be cheaper and better a GearVenders?

Unfortunately only a 10 bolt. But I won't be racing...

Took her in today to have the tailpipes fixed up. When it was up on the rack I decided to redo the whole exhaust, sounds so much better with the mangaflows!

Both still require a lot of work.
