I picked this ratty old basketcase up last fall, and originally planned to make a multi-winter project super stock car from it. Started life as a '70 malibu 307 th350 car, red with a white painted top, Grandma's special! After much deliberation and scoping the project out we decided that it was worth saving as the car actually came from western canada, so the frame was really good, and all the necessary parts of the shell were intact and solid. My dad was wanting to get back into racing, and had a 71 LS5 stock legal engine and trans so we said what the hell, lets do it. December 25, 2015 we rolled it into the shop. As I type this, may 13 2016 the car is in paint booth and we plan to have him on the track in mid june! Enjoy and fire away lol
