Check out what I finally drug out of the field
1967 big back glass longbed. 327 3 spd with what I think is a saginaw overdrive married to the 3 speed. Truck has some CST hints like chrome glass trim, full gauge package, chrome pedal bezels, and 1 door has a CST emblem and a blingin factory steering wheel. Heres the best part. with a fresh set of plugs and a kit in the Qjet, she fired up and idled on the second revolution. Someone has previously swapped an HEI in it and I did have to put a decent tank out of one of my parts trucks. That along with new rubber fuel lines and I can drive it around just like it hadn't been parked for 13 years. Thats right, it has been parked in the same spot in my possesion unmolested for 13 years.
It does foul 1 plug every third or fourth time I run it, but I am completely blown away by how hard this crust bucket runs. Tire smoke into third gear hard!!!! In all my years of fixing,buying and trading, this is the 1st 327 that I have had that ran. Is this bad boy just a freak or do most 327's run this good???
