Love the full vert conversion, especially with the factory plaid seats and nice paint. Nice rig.

Re: New guy... Again,,
Dans classic auto parts has the only cool side markers I could find. I am not a fan of the euro looking ones on lmc, pure white looks much better, at least to me.

Re: New guy... Again,,
Well it's tear down time. Gaskets from 1978 have finally reached their end. I have never seen every freeze plug give out at the exact same time before. I'll post pics if the tear down as go.
