kuipers Posted November 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 19, 2013 Thanks for the welcomes the car isnt near as clean as it looks both rear quarters have bad runs and this car has kinda been the town woman of ill repute, going to get it running and driveing ok then fix all the body damage and rust and repaint for now. If i dont get it running well the engine will get pulled and probably go with an iron block lsx. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Technology Posted December 25, 2013 Report Share Posted December 25, 2013 I knew it was Rapid city cause there's a hill in one of the pictures. I used to live in Aberdeen for a few years when I was in junior high. Sweet looking car! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
