continious improvement

been doing some updating on the 67 sold the bbc/400 turbo put the factory 327 and a fresh 2004r auto and did a fix for the dash made up a carbon fiber panel to cover it bought a new radio now i still need to get the budy buckets redone and the roll pan or new rear bumper still cant decide on that but it is good to get down the road with it with that extra gear

Re: continious improvement

thanks for the complements guys
havent checked mileage yet speedo is not rite
i may soften gear a little
mileage sure is beter than the bb not quite as much fun though the 373 gears just made that thing sing on the highway even with 275-60-15 i just wanted to be able to drive it more the 327 came in it did a mild rebuild 16+ years ago and broke in came across the bb and at that time i had to have it so the 327 went to the back of the garage
