I stumbled upon this car around 2005 at a small used car lot that looked more like a shade tree operation. The engine's top end was completely torn apart, but the body and interior were in great shape, so I wasn’t too concerned about the motor. I made an offer of $200, and the owner took it.
I had it towed home, bought some new gaskets, reassembled the engine, threw in a battery—and it fired right up! I had a blast with this car. I added a pair of Flowmaster 40s and did a cat delete, and let me tell you, it sounded incredible.
Later on, I swapped in a Series 2 3800 with a 4T65E and upgraded the front cradle and suspension. I’ll be posting some pictures of the build soon, so stay tuned!
