Don't worry about the little bit of rust in the rockers it looks better all one color then it would if the rust was fixed and primmer spots

I am right with you on those ideas, front bumper is going back on, wheels are staying with the dog dish hubcaps and the rust is staying. 350 is coming out, I bought a rebuilt 327 and 400 trans from a guy for $500. I sold the trans for $400 and ended up with a rebuilt 327 with camel humps for $100. Another thing I am going to do is add either a Gennie or Lokar shifter.
