LMAO,,, wont take a second mortage i dont think to buy this car,,,,,i have a ton of money in it,that i wont get back,,simply because it has seen several fases from the time i pulled it out of the cotton field,,(rust free ),,till it was at this stage,,,like blow fish said,,i had to sort out some of the poor work the shop did that back halfed this car did,,,,i picked him for all the wrong reasons,,but its very driveable now,,i drive it all over,, lots of people come up and say i se you ever place not afraid to drive a blown car,,,just make sure there are gas stations along the way,,lol a car like this,, which is not perfect,,i think ide sell for around the 26 grand,,,or so,,,lots of vintage parts that cant be replaced on this car,,and a few one off custom made pieces,,,its a haed turner at most events,,,,has been in mopar muscle,,and good guys rod and custom gazzette,,

I love those Offy valve covers.

I would like to see some close up shots of that intake, it looks like it sits lower than mine. I hate the intake I have but can't find anything else, I'm thinking of building my own.
 
I love pro streets as well, they dont have to have a blower for me for me to like 'em tho.8)

Mine a BDS blower intake, it started off as a 4bbl intake but they cut the middle out and welded the blower plate to it. The opening runs the length of the blower, not just the size of a 4bbl carb opening. I used a sb Chevy water out let on top of a spacer that runs the temp gauge. I'm seriously thinking of getting another blower intake from a swap meet, Chevy, Ford or whatever then cutting it up, or just buy a blower plate and build my own out of a dual 4blbl intake or an old Weind tunnel ram. I want something that doesn't look like it was just thrown together. The weind tunnel ram may be the best option, it has nice straight runners and I can make it sit pretty low.

PM me your email and I will send you some photos. The ones I have posted on here are through photobucket.
 
The closest thing I've had to pro street. big block 4 speed. cool truck, it was a lot of fun!
