Late 1999
My secondary
project, a gift from my brother..... not running, without brakes, and a
few years of back registration.
After purchasing it, he failed to
complete the registration making me the second registered owner.
Obtaining the title with current registration only cost me about $330.
Considering we grew up in a 1969 Chevelle Concourse Wagon, this one has
already created its own family history.
As it sits here,

Threw on an Edelbrock carb and intake, rebuilt the ignition
system, now it runs. Originally
with disc, a seized caliper lead to a
single piston disc brake conversion. |

Got a left front and a right

to use their rear view mirror and nailed the drivers door. |

March
2005
the 350 died....
Managed to snatch up a running 67 Impala for $300.
The rear end was blown and the brakes were shot as was just about
everything else, but the 327 ran
decent. Sold the car for $200 with my old dead 350.
In goes
the $100 dollar running 327. |

August 2007
The old th350 kept blowing the torque converter
seal so we swapped in another used th350 to keep it going. |
