my drivers sive fender is totaled. everything else is suprising sound for a 30 year old car

my interior needs straightening out but its all there

i wanna go pontiac power, but i cant afford it at this point in my life

my dad recently got a 79 t-top t/a with a 4.9 given to him, he says hes dropping a 455 in it
They are awesome cars with very good parts coverage. I miss the hell outa mine sometimes. The 455 Olds with the stock 2.41 gears made for a helluva top ender. lol You can always put a Poncho in it later on, but you will probably be more than happy w/ the LT1. I like LT1s. In fact, guess what my AMX is gonna get down the road?

And here's something that might interest you: I have a set of 2 inch dropped spindles, cross drilled rotors, rebuilt calipers, new Hawk brake pads, and new bearings and seals that were left over from my T/A. I made the mistake of swapping this set up onto my Turbo T, because I read it would work on a G body. Well, I'm an azzhat for listening to what I read on the WWW, because the set up basically makes the car undrivable and unalignable. So, I'm going back to the G body brakes and spindles and I'm going to be selling the F body set up. So, if you're looking for dropped spindles and upgraded brakes gimme a holla and we'll see what we can do.
