i bought this carcass for 900 bucks in 2007 and am trying to make a decent driver as cheaply as possible using all my spare parts and it looks like it should be drivable soon only real money i spent so far is on the 065 rad,893 oilpan and exhaust manifolds.

Looks like it will be a cool project, I have owned a dozen 69 383 GTS's and still have the 4-speed car I bought 33 years ago!
Let me know if you need parts or advice!

hours wise i would say around 250 so far,but i started on it almost 2 years ago,i work on it when i feel like so as not to get burnt out,its a shame how bad this car got with an owner who knew what it was if i didnt come along he was going to strip out the 83/4 and sell the numbers.
