Getting ready to start a restoration on her, although I'll probably eventually build the engine - the original is pretty anemic.
I have ALL of the original trim except the beauty rings with the red stripes for the argent wheels - having trouble finding those that aren't completely beat to shreds.
Look forward to bouncing ideas and getting tips and tricks from all y'all!

Welcome!  Glad you joined.  

How 'bout some pics?  And you'll probably want to start a thread in the main section to document your restoration.

Also, you would like to be on our map?  You can see it at Bullnose Forum/Member's Map in the menu.

Welcome!  

It wouldn't be hard to swap an H.O. cam, 4V carb and intake if you don't have visual emissions inspections there in South Carolina.

Yeah - no emissions inspections here in SC, so hoping I can clean things up under the hood a little

If you want to simply things and don't have inspection there's plenty you can do to the engine bay.

Perhaps we should leave that for a project thread (if you want to document the transformation)  or one down in the main forum.
