look for more pics soon.(april 09sih)

ok so its june 09 , my computers broke, ironic of course. so needs more work than i thought. needs full suspention rebuild, weather strip, some inteior help, now that ive had it for three months it needs tires, and new heads, there a  late 70s build small vavle heads, course after the headers and tune up she feelin alot better but theres always more, needs a new ring and pinon( ring is chiped do to the tranny shifts,) i have found the autobaun is useless to me as i can only take her to80 safely( 3k rpms dont feel good about that). the kill list is small, bmw m3, gayota supra j-spec stock auto and could not spin the the tires. nobody else wants to run em... i dont know why. car only runs low 15s i think. oh yeah like any other gm the electrical is gone and needs paint as the paint now is not original as first thought.

i am the 4th owner of this priceless American classic. its around 85% original with a majority of the work done by the first owner. first off the original 307 was replaced in 94 at 65k. in its place is a .30 over olds 350 with edelbrock carb and intake. its no longer computer controlled at all. i beleive it has a cam but i dont know what. the second owner was offered the 307 but turned it down since it was seized, (classic 80s engineering right?) after that the car gained another 5k until it was turned over to the second owner as it apparently ran like utter shit. vaccuum lines leading to nothing, missing or just not blocked off caused this. after that basic maintainence keep the car in good shape. it still has a 200-4R trans with lightning rods still attached. the trans was rebuilt sometime, but i dont know why when or how. the rear end is the same as it was in 83 sporting 3.73 gears and an open diff.

the car now has 105k miles on it and is currently on its way to germany where i will enjoy shutting down all these m3s and benzs runnin around here. Then cruise down to italy with the T-Tops out blastin led zeppelin in the tape player!

i have minor work to be done to it such as heater core and a head liner. after that i will begin surgery on the 350 with headers and true duals first, along with a limited slip of some sort.
