Been working on this for a couple years. Basically started with selling my 98 to a fellow member here and I hated it. Sooooo I dumped the woman who made me do it and bought a 350z. Figured that would hold me over, WRONG. So I know a guy from egg Harbor city that was selling an 81 he just painted and so I grabbed it. That dummer I tore out the carmine red interior and started on my version of a bandit clone.

The first picture is with the new rebuilt Q-jet, I think I need Cliff Ruggles to work his magic or I am going to look into a Holley.

The second and third are of the snow attacking my baby and right before I changed the timing a bit and got here into the Garage.
