Over the ~27 years I've had this car, it has been out of commission for at least 14 of them. The initial Griggs modifications, the original 429 engine build, the SPD exhaust build, the stock ECU tuning disaster, the Transpo voltage regulator disaster that caused the entire electrical system to be subjected to who knows how much voltage that fried the MSD box, distributor pick-up, the fuel pump, and fried a bunch of wiring. That's a whole other story. Don't ever buy a Transpo regulator. Powermaster stopped using them because they moved their production to China to save money and failures like mine started happening. Then, once I finally got all of the electrical resolved, the tie bar lifter failure. Jeez... I never gave up though. My wife HATES this car (and has told me so in no uncertain terms). She keeps telling me to sell it. No way baby, I'll never sell this car...
