New Guy.
Hello all.
I just wanted to introduce myself. I have lurked for awhile and have posted a few times.
I have a '74 with a stock 350. I have done a few mods, Intake, tranny, etc.
I purchased this car in April and have been doing a little work on it. It has a aftermarket tail and the interior is not bad. I have done the BowTie transmission swap and really like the overdrive. With the 3.08 gears it runs 1950rpms at 70mph. The body is decent and no major problems. I am going to tackle rebuilding the trailing arms this spring.
I am a network administrator (computers) and own a small computer consulting company.
I have really enjoyed reading all the good info in the forum
Thanks!
