I got this thing FOR FREE from my Mom's neighbor. He got it from is Dad YEARS ago and just never got into to. His wife told him to toss it so he told my Mom it was mine if I wanted it. I said yes ofcourse so he pulled it into the garage and it's been there for about a week now. I've only been there once so far to really look it over, and what I saw I really liked.

Okay, so I'll have to get the vin and see what's what. The previous owner told me that it originally had a 327 that his dad swapped out for a 350 at some point. And if I remember correctly, it has the round diffy housing, I don't remember the rear looking like a Dana, but I'll be sure to check that out too when I'm over there this coming weekend.

Let's say it is a Corporate rear, considering the 327 and A/T, what gear ratio is most likely to be in that thing?

Oh, another question I have is about stock tire height. The wheels/tires that are on it are not stock. What sizes were available on these things?

I'll take pics this weekend too.

Thanks again guys!
