Default 69 econobox swap

Hey, i'll keep it short and sweet. Purdue grad displaced to N Colorado just started a goofy little LS project. I'll let some pics explain:








Initially it'll just pretty much be a slightly fortified 69 Rambler (American) chassis with a stock 2004 GTO ls1 and t56. Has heidt's mustang II front end soon to be accompanied by a Wilwood and viking upgrade also 8.8 ford rear. We'll see were the car goes but I'm mostly just here to read. Happy hotrodding!
