Well, it's been 8 years since I was forced to sell my race car. A lot has changed since then. Long story short I purchased Ethan's then Emilio's, then Daryl's and then Ethan's again old car for my son Bobby who is almost 15. This car is like a cheap whore lol.
Anyway, I bought the car from Ethan with the intention to build the car with Bobby and teach him the little that I know along the way. The car had a 347 with a broken crankshaft, but Ethan threw a spare 302 engine in the deal. I had the car towed to my house and immediately started to tear it down. The day after the car got here I tore down both engines and took the good one to the machine shop. We are building a 10:1 327 (331 with standard bore). I'll post pics when I get it back and start assembly.
I ripped out all of the interior that is in need of an overhaul and vacuumed up about a years worth of cigarette butts that were in the car. At least whoever did that wasn't polluting and throwing them out the window lol.
I started digging into all of the wiring as well and there is a ton of stuff that just had wires twisted together and then taped. I immediately started pulling all of that out and cleaning up all the wiring throughout the entire car.
