Hey this is my 1979 Chevy 'big 10' bonanza 'BAD TO THE BONE'

this is what it looked like when i first bought it in summer of 2001
the exterior
and the interior

the motor- 305 cu in with a 3 speed saginaw manual tranny

Changing the transmission from the saginaw to a built turbo 400 with a manuel valve body and 3500 stall converter and a tci fly wheel/b&m cool pan/lake wood taction bars custom cross member for tranny/driv shaft loop

restoring the interior and changing it to black with autometer gages and wood grain bezel and insert and a b&m mega shifter with line lock shifter knob for theline lock
