This is where my dash should be, but I'm redoing my interior.

That deal on the passenger side, I'm still working on that. I still have to take the excess paint off from around the 5.0. Then I'm gonna do the drivers side.


Figured I'd show you some pics of the ole' cruise ship.

Dude, that 390 will run circles around any 351 I've ever seen.

Yeah it is. It came with a 390 2V with a C6 auto and 9 in rear end.
