Pics at original link show stripped and topless! Heading to Albany in a.m. to get a '67 283 I won on ebay w/reworked heads and edelbrock performer intake for the low-low price of $67. I hope and assume several of the parts from the current 305 will transfer, starter is the question mark. Not an original offering but still a favored member of the family. Anyone w/knowledge of a low priced 500cfm 4-barrel carb let me know.
Went to 2 Harbor Freights sales w/20% off coupons(google Harbor Freight Coupon, sale thru Sun.) earlier so I'm about set to grind on some paint. Got The Works toilet bowl cleaner earlier,- saw onsite its use as rust remover/dissolver- and spray bottle, gloves and face shield so I'll post before and after pics of what it does to rust. Thanks for encouragement! I'm out, mombo
