T-Top Power Steering Power Brakes Originaly had a Transister Iginition System . My Dad passed away so our Father Son project has passed away also. We had planned on someday restoring this car together but without him it just isnt the same for me. My Dad is from Albany New York and was Good friends with Jack Muldowney (Shirley Cha Cha Muldowney's Ex husband She was the first lady Drag car driver) and in 1979 He helped us freshen up the engine. It is a Standared Bore with Original Pistons. The Original Rods were resized and the Original Steel crank was turned.

The Camshaft is a Crane Fireball Hydraulic 550 lift with 320 duration. A TRW Oil Pump and Double roller Timing chain and gears, the Rings are Hastings with Chrome oil rings and are the only internal parts that are not GM.
