So I haven't updated this in a long time and all the pictures have since buggered off too. But in December last year I munched what I thought was a lifter in this and took it off the road. It sat around for ages with me being too busy with work and life to do anything with it. Have since rebuilt the suspension and lowered the front a touch so it sits level again. I pulled the 253 out yesterday to be replaced with a 304 I've had sitting around for a while. (was originally going into the VC, will find another block for that one). So plan is just a simple rebuild swapping off all the carby gear onto the 304, but with a Edelbrock Air Gap and a Come 222 Cam which I had sitting here. Just a simple cheap throw together thing so I can drive it again. Its no fun having 2 project cars not running. Pic dump of where its at now and some from last year when it was still running.
All new gear, DBA T3 5000's, QFM Pads, Koni Reds etc.
First set of springs I tried, as sick as this looks I couldn't even get my low jack under the K frame and driving it was going to result in munching guards.
The current state of my very messy shed. There a 6 engines, 2 autos and and 2 T56's in there right now. Need to sell some stuff... See the difference in the floor between the photos above a month earlier.
