Bryan, I think you are on your way to becoming a hoarder. Looks good and clean.

Neat car, too bad you didn't live here. There is a complete 73 C-body at PnP with a steel crank 440, A/C and the good disc brakes right now. All the good stuff to make this one into a butt hauler.

They're too lazy and unqualified to pull any parts. I'll check on it again within the next week to see if it's still intact. It would be a great swap with all the correct, factory brackets etc. I snagged the PS pump off it for my Challenger but everything else is there except it's got an aftermarket rad and the stock shroud is gone.
