The plan is motor refresh with #416 heads cleaned up, cam, headers, and 4 barrel. Body wise fix the rust. I have a friend that owns a media blast and powder coat shop. So everything frame susp wise will be powder coated -Jacob-
That's a great looking truck. I would drive it for awhile and surf around here for info and ideas.

You may want to read up on 307s a little. The bore-to-stroke ratio is less than optimal (283 bore with a 327 stroke). They respond to speed parts, but not as well as other small blocks. I've had a couple and always ended up replacing them with a 327 or 350. Anyway - it depends on your situation (money/time and whatnot).
