Yeahl, it's a 76. I'm not sure how to update the profile, couldn't find it...I'm sure it's probably right in front of me somewhere.

Anyhow - the engine is a 400 sbc, Edlebrock performer package (carb, cam, intake), headers, flowmasters, 20thou on the block, flat top Keith Black pistons and a few other goodies.

Thanks for all of the compliments, I appreciate it!

Yeah, I'm a big Wildcat fan (not a fan of the current coach), but my wife actually picked out the color. It used to be black. I liked it black it just would have cost way more than I could afford to make it look like I wanted...so the wife won out and I'm very pleased. By the way, the primer is NC blue..hehe.
