It's not gonna be wild, but it's gonna get a Clifford Performance 4.9 inline six(like the one pictured below), disc brakes up front, and more modern wheels and tires. I'm planning to use it as a gig vehicle.

If it were mine and I had the money to burn, I'd drop a 572 in that thing! Definitely subscribed to this thread. |
