Plans are right now is just to get it on the road so I can drive it! Interior is gutted, I am going to reappolster the seats this month, interior is ready for paint. I have much of what I need to put it back together. It is a 200 6 cylinder car, but not numbers matching. I have plans to make it a V8 down the road, my father in law has a 351W, C6 and a 9 inch that I can through in it. But for now, I want to get it mobile and drive / enjoy it for a couple years. There is plenty to do and never enough $$$$ to do it all at once. I'm going to enjoy this site, have been reading a lot of threads and I think there is much I can learn to get this thing back together. I will post the progress.

I am having the wheels blasted and painted black. I am going to run black rims with chrome center caps until I upgrade to 5 lug. I have not found many options for 4 lug rims, and I don't care for hub caps.
