well it finally happened. my roomate after eight years got his car to our house and we're finally startin to work on it
in our garage we have a 1965 el camino(chevelle). its an elcamino with a chevelle front end on it. the thing looks sweet. and except for a couple a bumps and a little caner on it the body is cherry. we have a full interior thats been waiting for about six years now most of the other essentials are on the way
as of right now we're gonna run the stock 283 that it came with, with a few nicknacks added for fun. but for that old of a car and for sitting that long the motor is in glorious condition. well thats all for now, when i get a chance im gonna try and get pictures of it and get them on here to let yall see the progress, and if anyone is from around stockton/ lodi, the drag strip in lodi called heavenly is going to be opening in a month or two and hopefully with a crap ton of work you'll see us out there...

are you going to do an engine swap eventually? if so, and if you can't sell the old one, do something sweet to get rid of the old one, like put a 500hp shot of nitrous and go to the drag strip.
