Default finally getting the GT350 back on the road

this weekend i went to cj pony parts customer appreciation day and it just made me want my car back that much more. my brothers 65 has been sitting for 12 years and the body is a lost cause. im pulling the 289 out of it and dropping it in my fox as it is still in one piece and ready to run. if anything i might just throw the set of GT40p heads on it for some extra umph and call it a day. so in the next couple months if not sooner the car will be on the road again...finally.

Yeah I saw Bill walking around and yup that was my car over by the show room, just never got a free moment to give a shout out to Bill as I had the kids with me and they took up my time, Bernie has been MIA he sold his ride and is now enjoying his new found interest in a new bike
