Howdy from SoCal

No biggy been doing customs and race cars for past 45 years. Looking to see some first hand experience / opinions.
Going on a rotisserie, goal is totally stock body, upgraded suspension with improved geometry for smooth ride, modern drivetrain, AC PS/PB. Real cushy. (going to be wifes car) Car has nothing now so not going to destroy any good stock parts
