Well this is a good point;

Because it is so nice the way it is.
Because being a 4-door it is so practical, serviceable and economical the way it was originally designed.
Because there will still be upgrades you can make to make it even better.
Because a slant is simpler than a v8
Because it has working a/c
Just enjoy the car for what it is and enjoy making small changes. QUOTE]

I don't understand

Because a slant is simpler than a v8

An engine is an engine. As long as it runs good and it works fine for you, then, it should be good. Granted it is probably an easier engine to work on. Haredest part is what?> Changing the cap and rotor?

Well, that would be me, I allways say, God bless the restorer cause I normally MOD the hell out of everything I get. Or at least, upgrade it with items that make sense if I'm not hot rodding it.

It is a nice looker. Nothing wrong with stock. Driving history around is fine.

No matter which way you choose,you can't loose with such a sweet looking car !!!:cheers::cheers::cheers::cheers::cheers::cheers::cheers::cheers:

It's a four door so i would leave it alone.
I think it's nice the way it is because it is just like what most people had for a car back in the day.
I just know from doing the restoration kind of thing all the time, that when you find a cool old car that is running and driving and in great shape you just leave it alone unless you have the resources to make it something cool.
I have seen so many good cars taken apart and never put back together.
It's in great condition and still running.
Most people want to make every car a v8 car.
I would keep it the way it is for cruising and getting parts for your v8 car, that never seems to be ready for the road and is always apart and needing something.
