This car is missing the insulation for the firewall under the dash that meets the carpet transition. This pulled to weld, smooth firewall and never replaced. Front seat has chrome airplane style seat belts in front only. I have a pair for the rear included.
Hood is primer because it fell off the roof during an engine swap. Needs to be blocked/primed before final paint. There were some nicks in the drivers side door so I had that fixed, primed as well. I am sure I am forgetting something, if you have any questions feel free to ask. I have owned the car since I was in high school. I'm now married and am expecting in April our second child. This car is neglected as is now, it should find a home to some one who has the time and enjoys this type of car. I was building it as a street/strip ride. I think once sorted it has the potential for high 11's low 12's which is fun in this type of car. It has manual steering, manual 4 wheel disc brake, still needs an alignment to get it dead nuts. No INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING OR BUYERS, WOULD PREFER LOCAL PICKUP
