My 56 210 |
Latest Progress: (5-7-09) The engine is back in with all new gaskets, new Holley 600 carb, new HEI distributor, and 200-4R overdrive transmission. Also, all new suspension with sway bar and disc brakes with CPP 2" drop spindles. Made the first test drive this week. Still need to install the torque convertor lock-up wiring. |
