Thanks! Nothing big, 350, 600cfm Holley carb, intake, longtubes, 3" exhaust with Super 44's. I have other work to do before I pull the motor apart.

They're actually painted. This car was my dad's for the last 15 years. Let's just say there's some body work that needs to be redone.

I'm planning on repainting it, but I can't decide if I want to keep it blue with white stripes or another color. I was thinking candy red with white stripes.

I had a 71 for my first car hence my screen name. One of the best looking F-bodys ever made IMO. One word of advice, Dont ever part with it. I still have dreams at night with mine. lol

Dude, did yours drive like absolute ****? The oldest car I had before this was an '87 Camaro turd gen. This 73.. when you go over potholes it's like the entire car is going to fall apart. The shocks look fairly new. I have nothing to compare this to so I'm not sure how it's supposed to be! I wanna drop it 2" and put some bilsteins under there.

My oldest car before my 70 elky was my 85 vette that I stiffened the ride it. The vette still rides nicer on 17in rims and 26in tires vs the elky with 15in rims and 28 tires.

Old cars ride crappy compared to now a days standards but can be upgraded.

Mine is not an RS car, and I don't take many pictures of it because with the new front clip it looks like aids, I need to paint it asap.

Was always a fan of the split bumpers (RS style) instead of the grandma bar but that Camaro above is bad ***. Whats the plans?? But good buy man! Looking forward to seeing this thing built up
