The previous owner replaced a 350/350 combo with a correct original 287 and hydramatic four speed and probably didn't put 100 miles on the drivetrain. I had to finish a couple of temp linkages and adjustments and address leaks etc. After it was road worthy I started a disc brake conversion, man what a fiasco that was thanks to a unique power booster and master cylinder design and some custom parts issues. Was able to get a little late season cruising in before putting her up for the winter.
