thanks guys! its running a buick V8 (buick 350/auto haha) that was first in the lil truck .
lowered with cut coils ,blocks in rear and removed a couple leaves for now...
it still needs much more bodywork before its ready for paint.
this is how it looked when i drug it home in december! what a pile! http://members.roadfly.org/samiam/car1.JPG
