thanks guys, I am very budget oriented so i put alot of effort into finding deals/ so far with my "budget shopping" i have $1150 into the motor intake and cam, and 1500 into the purchase of the car. plus 120 in diesel to go get the motor. still cheaper than i could build a 347 for.

700 bucks is a hell of a deal, considering a 347 shortblock goes for wayy more...

i started a lil bodywork while im savin money for more engine parts not as good as i though the car was but not terrible

my car had shaved door handles and the drivers side was cracked where the handle should be, well the stupid !@#terd who did it put tap on the back side of the holes and filled it with bondo

my hatch has a rust hole but nothing to bad



my right rear quarter had a bubble in the paint and i figured there would be a hole there, but i foun that the quarter has been patched from the middle of the wheel well forward and the hole is in the old patch. that quarter always looked a little funny to me and now i no why there was about 3/4 inch of bondo on top or the repair. so i have a lil more body work than i though but the car is rust free underneath so its not to bad i guess
