Looks very good, but what's with all the holes in the lower radiator support?

Ready to be painted





I've got bad news though..the engine block got broken during the machinery..we wanted to get a stroker but it was probably already cracked..we're going to wait untill we'll find another one..since we'll already have the kit we're going to stay with a 383..it could be a chance to get a 400 instead..

oh except for the engineblock, that sucks, can you even find one in italy, or?

We'll need to get it shipped from U.S...and it's gonna be big money! But the guy who sold me the car would cover it..

I can't believe that's the same car. Goes to show, you can save pretty much save any car if the talent & funds are there. Congrats on a project well done. I hope it works out with the motor.

Holy Crap, are you trying to set a record for how fast you can restore?
