Well It didn't take long but I turned around and bought a 67 Belvedere with a 318 and air conditioning I'm wanting to turn it in to a street strip car maybe do some nostalgic super stock racing. 71 demon stock stroke 440/indy ez-1 running 10.10 @ 132.14 mph in the 1/4 and 6.36 @ 107.46 mph in the 1/8 not in the same weekend but It did it then I sold it. 67 Belvedere that worked it's way in the 10's

I dont need all out fast, I want a nice driver with A/C If I may ask, where did you find it? 10K sounds like a really good buy for a what appears to be a pretty decent looking car. AKA, right up my ally
