More about the car:
I purchased the car in 1975. Over the last 49 years I chopped and channeled it 3 inches built a new chassis with a height super ride. Independent front suspension. The engine is a 383 stroker with AFR Street eliminator aluminum heads the carb is a brawler 750 double pumper. The exhaust is a roadworks lakester header with cut outs and flow master mufflers. I put in a 32 dash with Stewart Warner gauges. My front tires P20 5 70 R 15 Dunlops and the rears are tall city 31 x 10.50 x 15 Chester slicks. I bought the car when I was 22. I am now 71 and I’m still driving it all around town.
