The gauges were all replaced with Autometer Sport Comp with
a custom mounting plate that allows the Tach, Speedometer, and fuel level
gauge to sit in the original housing. Then a B&M shifter and seat belts
made the car a little more comfortable for real world driving.
The rims were changed to Torque Thrust "D"s (like the
front) when the axles were redrilled in the rear to accept them.
Wrapped with "late model style" low profile tires, it even drives nice!
The front brakes were changed to cross drilled discs, and power assist
was added with a manual proportioning valve so now this car stops as well
as any car on the road today.
Just to keep things interesting, the car uses a 250 HP
305 Chevrolet with a three speed automatic transmission, and sounds as
sweet as anything on the road!
This thing attracts a crowd faster than free money!
