Hey my names Todd, im 17 and recievied this car for passing my g2 test. i plan on making this car a 442. im gonna take it back to the original pewter silver paint, with the w-30 stripes, and im debating on going to a black interior or leave it the original green.
I dont know how much horse power this has, but it has a 68 350 short block, with the 72 heads(i later found out that they are 3A heads which are 1978). 4bbl. if any one could give me an idea what kinda power i would be making that would be great. i know it has the numbers matching trans and rear end with 2.73 open.
I also found a ram air hood for it, 442 grills, and all the emblems for the 442 which i am going to purchace sometime soon. I also found a 455 threw the grapevine which the guy said he would hold onto it for me.
The first picture is when i first got the car, i photoshoped it because the headlight bezels were not painted, and the photoshop makes it look like it does now.
The only problems with the car is that it has an exhaust leak, the trunk pan needs replaced, and a few dings and scratches on the body, very little rust, just above the A pillar driver side. If any one has any parts that would work on my car to make it a 442, if they could let me know that would be great. or if you see a part or something on my car that will probably be upgraded/replaced let me know cause i dont have alot of room in my garage for this stuff.
I will try to get more pics up later when i get the camera developed. and update as i get stuff done.
I took some pictures with my cell phone, they arent great.
As of right now the car is in the body shop, and it should be out in a few days. it has the ram air hood, sport mirrors added to it and its getting painted argent silver with glass black stripes. when it comes out ill put some pictures up. I got pics of the car done on the next page
