This was a project that got interrupted, I pulled the trigger on it today. comes with title, and some goodies like new wiring harnesses, vacuum hoses, bumpers, all the firewall components, and new carpet. All the glass is good, birdcage is solid, and fiberglass is all good. Original color was red with black interior.

Frame and matching numbers motor already have been sold, so no need to keep it stock.

I still need to finish my other 69, which is going back NCRS. This one will not be a NCRS car, but will have no body or interior mods, just performance stuff

Looks good, time for a nasty big block and a 5 speed!

This is what I'm thinking too.

wish list includes:
upgraded frame
updated suspension front and rear
Lots of torque and horsepower for street
5 speed transmission
drive line to handle extra torque and HP
AC
Stock appearance exterior and interior

What makes someone sell a matching number drive train from an otherwise complete and nice condition car ? There is not much value when putting it in another car .
