i went near bristol tn a few months back and picked up this 2 owner 70 base model four door for 1250 bucks.runs like a top with 105xxx miles.it was a 250 with a glide.very minor rust and some dings here and there but it is complete and just what i was looking for

engine

making room for this little guy...its a 4.8 with a little bit done to it,with a 350 turbo,it was in my s10 i built with a 76mm turbo.ran 6.70s @ 103 in the 1/ 8th without a good tune then i sold the body(personal reasons) before i got to really tune on it.that was straight off the trailer....so i sold all of the efi and now goin carb with a blow through and another 76mm

car

just another toy...the efi i had was not factory.i had a harness built,had a victor jr on it,huge injectors,etc.i have hp tuners and was just honestly tired of messing with it so much.the cam is huge for a 4.8 so idleing was verry much an issue.just wanna stay old school so to speak with this one.....im going for a very particular look with this car and efi didnt fit in under the hood.lol
