Sold the bagged 61 apache I had. Planned to by a 51 chevy but it sold first, then went to look at a 63 suburban, and while thinking it over, it sold.....
So, with my mind swirling and knowing whatever I get, has to be done and ready to drive 3.5hrs in 8wks to the Billetproof/Detroit Dragway Reunion at Milan Raceway in Mi on May 11th..
So I ended up buying a 63 short fleet BBW
65 327
Saginaw 4spd out of same car as motor

I'm swapping in one of my spare 5lug 3.08 posi rearends. So that along with a car 4spd should make it a highway flyer.

Plan for now is static drop. Brakes. Minor cosmetic makeover.

We'll see how this plays out. May 11th isn't far away...lol
