This car was given to me as a parts car and the 472 with turbo 400 i traded for some parts. I guess it if i don't rat bag on it, it should stay together. It was more of a " look what i got under the hood thing" ( penis extention with zipper up) small blocks are common and I like things different, my other car is a 240z convertible. This car will look stock from the outside except for shaved rear bumper and 240z bumper on the front, i just have to muffle the 3" exhaust.
