Bored, cammed, ported the heads. Added power steering from a junk yard parts haul. Swapped the Muncie linkage to a Mr. Gasket "Bang Shifter", dual exhaust with Thrush mufflers. Repainted for an even $100 bucks to include under the hood, door jams and trunk. Those were the days.
I forget, is this the "Wish I Hadn't Sold It" thread or the "Wish I could go back" one? The latter one sounds much more interesting to me
