2 years ago I put 528 inch rb with a six pack in this bad boy.

The old power drums did stop it lol in a football field.
Doing Wilwood on all 4 corners. Along with a new fuel system.

Front brakes were straight forward going on. Ball joints screwed right out with impact gun. Lucky... I found old stock moog tie rod ends upper ball joints and idler arm. The lowers are whoever.

Rear brakes not so good. I bought 8 3/4-Dana kit but the caliper brackets were for a Dana 35. So here I sit waiting on drop ship and that will be 5-7 days .

Wasn't planning on the fuel system just yet but while it's stuck on the hoist might as well take advantage and knock it out.
The old 5/16 line just won't handle them carbs when they open for long.

I don't feel bad about cutting the well out it's the only rusty spot on the car.

Nice, looks like you've been hiding in plain sight here with some high performance, love it!
 
Plain white wrapper. Neat! Fuel cell in the rear storage area?
