yup they are taking the stuff off of the 4cyl car to put under the '82 ....... nice car btw i have been following your thread a bit!

i had perfect chance to take pics of the underside but so mad about wat they were doing it was best to leave when i did but ill prolly make it back as they finish up.

what i was aiming for was getting a strong motor and trans built and put in so i can cruise it and do all the extras as i wanted just over time but now ill have to get a lot of stuff before its road worthy again.... and thennnnn get motor finished to power it again. im tossing around the idea of selling/trading it for something a little more complete. mustang, '65 falcon, 66-67 fairlane, ect..... or just toughin it out and making it a long term project.......???

well im somewhat biased towards 82s. But if it isnt practical to keep it and you dont find it anything special then i would get rid of it
