Vehicle Overview

A true SS car. This specific car used to be my older brother’s back in 2008. I remember the cruises in it growing up. This car right here started my affection for hotrods. Then, it was a lil old 305, with a choppy cam and some worked heads. Now 13 years later, I stumbled upon it. The old gentleman that bought it from my brother still owned it. He had put a stock 350 small block in it and daily drive it. I asked him if he’d like to sell it. He told me, “well, if you don’t mind pulling the engine out of it so I can use the engine in my ‘53, you can have the car. I’ll just be happy to see it go to a good home.” So here she is. Back in the family, and it’s all thanks to an old hot-rodder. Just gotta swap engines out.

Future Plans

I have another small block and a good set of S/R heads that have been worked over, and good cam package for it. I’m going to put that in it, and send it. This will be my Girlfriends first car to drag race with. And with that, I am mostly excited about. Gotta get some of that body and paint work sorted out.
