Is that acupulco blue? It looks a little darker than winter blue but I can't put my finger on it. And no side stripes?

And yeah, that thing's slammed lol

Slick 69, has it been lowered? It def looks it.

Yes it was lowered way back in the day and it's just been so long that now the springs are sagging. Hopefully we're going to be putting new springs in it shortly.

Yep it is. It was repainted way back in the day and the stripes were never put back on, and now it's in need of another paint job so he just hasn't bothered.

The car has been sitting for years, it's a shame really. My dad doesn't want to get rid of it though cause he's the original owner, bought it when he was 20!

That mach needs to be in the garage. Your car has way better metal then his. Our cars rust at the first sign of moisture lol

haha. Yes i agree it's pretty awesome that he's the original owner. He's planning on moving it into the garage soon so he can start working on the suspension.

His plans are to pretty much freshen up everything: engine and exhaust, suspension, brakes, paint and some of the interior. It runs right now but you can tell it's not all there. Plus it has the original 4 speed in it so he wants to put in at least something with an overdrive.

Yeah I think a TKO 500 would do him well, he's always talking about a T56 but I think he needs to get real lol
You have to almost widen the tunnel. Wasn't crazy about that. Besides the fact most T56's are 10 spline input. Mines 26 spline input, 31 out. Works much stronger then a T56
