In my opinion we dont really need these rust buckets but we enjoy tinkering with them keeps my sanity stable...

Plans???

[pugs]

not totally sure yet once i get it home and cleaned out and up will see where i go from there, think i should the slots on it ? there is a 307/350th bolted in but not all hooked up,did hook up a battery and jumped the starter and it cranked right over. according to the trim tag it has a posi unit in it. i knows the usual rockers and cab corners. will get more pics when i get it home

The 72 I just bought has the same slot mags and I told the previous owner that they would be the first thing to go.
