Default Latest pics of my 68...

Well I almost sold it, some guy came by and asked ifI wanted to sell he was going to give me 10K. It was tempting butI decided against it. Anyway heres some picsI took a few days ago. tommorrow is tear down and I'll strip some paint, I'm hoping to have the paint all stripped (inside and out) and have it ready to get the small amount of body work (I hope cuz i'm going broke)done, also the 350 is going to get pulled and rebuilt with ross flat toppistons,6in crowder rods, cranecam (113801)and have my heads portedfor nitrous.I'm hoping for 425-450HP NA and close to 600 with nitrous low 11's is the goal.any questions just ask.

Alright got a little done today but not a whole lot since I just bought some goodies (so my dad can't cry about using his stuff)

I'm removing the paint using chemicals which is easy but I hate waiting. I'd say 70% of the roof is done doesn't sound like much but there is 3 coats of paint so i'm having to do 3 and in some placesI had to do 4 coats of remover. thefew other thingsI did are remove the battery, racing seat, drained and removed the fuel cell.

Its taped off im trying to keep the chemicals out of jams and off my fiber glass doors. The guy who built the car is making me mad, the whole trunk is sheet metal with 58 screws and a rubber sealer holding everything . So that all got ripped out. the top is all stripped now except for 7 quarter sized spots that i'll get next time and start on some other places.

I also decided against rebuilding the current engine and building a new one, I've already got GM fast burn heads and getting a 3790010 bored .0020 over magnafluxed bunch of other stuff.
