It's going into a 1970 chevelle.

I dont think theres much else of the car that can be sold LOL

If the seats were black, id keep them for myself...

I will have the seats to sell, the wheels and and a few things......

The rear end, I havent decided if I want to keep it yet... I hear its pretty weak but its free... At first I wanted to install it in the chevelle but after some research, I am doubting that.. maybe I'll buy something else or keep the stock 10bolt rear.
