What wide vody kit is this? The spoiler was supposed to have been bought from motion?

Pics are a little dark but it looks like it could be a good runner. Just go over it well before driving it! Suspension, Brakes, Steering, ect...

The guy told me the kit was motion and the work was done by a shop in NJ.

I wasn't for sure.

I hope it is motion.

I'm going to do a little research. I was wanting to throw in the monoleaf upgraded suspension, fuel injected 383, overdrive auto, and my Supercharger. But I may wait.

If nothing motion was done to the 350, it is setting in the garage.

you could purchase those things from Motion and put them on. Just because it has those items does not mean it was built by Motion.

I don't think it was built by motion. It has a 350 in it.
But if it is a actual kit. I'm going to leave it alone.

But if it is just a radom front fascia, I'm going to customize it to be more smooth lined.

Would the motion kit make it worth more?

I kinda prefer to be able to make changes to the motor without screwing up history.

I mainly wanted a race style body, with modern drivetrain, and horsepower with mpg.
