My boring build thread

I bought this last February. I really have not achieved a heck of a lot. Basically it came home under its own power with a Buick 300 in it. I was pretty quick to make it a non runner and yanked the small block out. I replaced it with a 455 with headers. That was the worst automotive experience I have ever had. Since then I really have not done anything with it. I'm at the point I need help with wiring. I have a friend that will help me get her fired up. Today I got under it and cut out the old mufflers and pipe. Then I ripped the vinyl top off and did some sanding. I'm fairly pleased with the sheet metal underneath it. There were a couple rust spots, but nothing to lose sleep over.

Some people are like Slinkies... not really good for anything, but they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs.
