Well I have an engine lined up for this car now. Need to get some paint work completed before it goes in but Im one step in the right direction.
Cool. What engine?
Got a little 347 from a buddy. It should run decent!
Almost time for 15 & 22 to reunite! 22 will be done by the end of June.
Hopefully I get this one together soon. It needs a lot of work yet.
I did order the smooth fender aprons for it so I can get them welded in and paint the engine bay. I got with Hud who had the car originally and he is supposed to be getting me the original paint cans that he still has so I can get the colors close.
Pulling the old front suspension out. I have a Team Z K member for it.
Ill be getting the 347 tomorrow for it and possibly a TKO. From there, Im not sure where Im going.
Just a little update.
Got the smooth aprons from LMR. Started getting the engine bay ready for paint. Need to get all the wiring and brake stuff removed yet. Will be pulling the fenders and front bumper cover off this week and hopefully get into paint next weekend or so.
Walters 347 is going into this one along with his TKO. Picked up a bellhousing, tranny mount, and a few other odds and ends too. I have a stock 8.8 with a 4.10 gear that will get me rolling again. Draglites from the Reef Blue car will be going on this also.

Oooo shit those look strong!!
Picked up the Quick Time bell, fuel pressure regulator, MSD 6530 box, and Team Z pedal today. Thanks for the parts Walter!
Getting close to having all the parts I need to get it finished up once I get the engine bay painted.
Still need an aluminum driveshaft with 31 spline yoke, Team Z A arms, front coil overs, and rear suspension yet. Cant get the driveshaft to save my life. Everything is on back order right now.
I see you being motivated! Going to be awesome!
Thanks! Im doing real good at ordering parts! Ive got a ton of stuff here, just need to get it together.
Got my Donathen Racing bumper supports today. Pretty nice products. One for the Gould car and one for the Reef Blue car.
