new owner in WA, two almost identical 79's

Hi Guys.My name is Cameron.
My brother and I just picked up one of the two 79's we are getting from a friend of mine. The first is mostly stock. The second has an carb intake and exhaust. Our plan is to make matching drift cars. Can't wait to drive into them.

Here is the first one before we got it home and cleaned.it had about 3"of water sitting under the driver seat and is pretty moldy. Got it home and changed all the fluids and got it fired up.

Got the rear end welded in the first one and took out most of the rats nest. Didn't hook up the vacuum lines right and had a real annoying squeal. Once we traced that down it ran a lot better. Now the 12a leaves two tire marks in the road when we take off. Can't wait to find some headers and exhaust.
