Nice! That short runner carb setup should make for a fun car. What are your plans for it? Fun daily driver, or will you be doing any racing?

Looks a lot better in black than in finger paint green.

What are your plans for the car right now, past intake and exhaust?

new suspension just havent decide what route to go with it yet. Ill be putting in aftermarket gauges to back up the stock ones(reliability), new seats and eventually a roll cage etc.... But just going to get it going first so i can keep the miles of my truck for work.

Please allow me to influence your suspension decisions.
