History
My mom bought this car originally and it was a rust bucket with a white paint with purple flames barn paint job it's only shining qualities were the great overall condition of the interior and the brand new Edelbrock Sport Package Crate Engine and Complete Flowmaster Exhaust that my mom had put in it after she bought it. She never got around to doing anything with it so when I was 16 I bought it from her. I had the car professionally de-rusted and painted its new color(s). I had the electricals professionally redone. I put a new sound system in it. I had bucket seats installed. I had everything re-chromed that needed it. I also had a Turbo 350 3 speed transmission with a B&M Shift Kit and a complete 4 wheel disc brake conversion kit put on it. After the headache of getting the car fixed up, I said " Now she is as pretty as she sounds." She was my daily driver for 3 years but now she is my show queen and weekend driver.
