Start out with a pic or two of the car. 79,*** original miles. The last couple pics are taken with a real (non cell phone) camera. The paint has a lot of pearl
I plan on painting the pillar semigloss black as I don't have the money or patience to cut it out and do the classic coupe swap.
Also plan on pulling the HVAC stuff out of the car, switching to manual brakes and steering, and lots of other things the wife will hate lol.
And a picture of the parts stack as of today
Ordering a cam kit tomorrow (230/235 .6XX), a walbro 255, and a vette filter reg combo. Eventually going to get a built motor with a snail, for now I just want to enjoy it while I save parts money. I think all I need is a converter/flexplate spacer, a couple fittings, and some fluids. I hope to be able to pull the stock locked up 305 some time next week and put the 5.3 in. Probably buy a cheap Assed jegs converter and use the stock trans for a while.
I'll update as parts come in and stuff happens lol.
I'm always open to criticism and advice!
