this is pretty much the car that your dad tells you about when your like 12 years old. you know, how he bought it when he was young, and it didn't have this, this, that, or anything really. but it was fast, loud, and your grandmother hated it. it alwas ends with "i never should have bought that." but it makes for good stories, right? anyways, here's the toy/project/POS known as arf. why arf? because there's an ARP sticker under the hood with part of the P ripped off so it look like an F. and it likes to chirp tires 
it's got a 350ci chevy smallblock out of something pre-1977, the only way i know is that the oil dipstick is on the driver's side of the engine bay. edelbrock 650 quadrajet carb, and i was told a th-350 trans. i'm wondering if it really is because the th350 only has three forward gears, and i feel 4. it has a tranny cooler, B&M shifter and shift kit. it snaps into second realllllyyyyy hard :th_sinister:
those are hedman headers that look like they came out of a junkyard lol. they're running to flowmasters and dump before the rear axle. the rear end has been replaced with a limited slip differential of some sort, possibly a camaro?
there's my 3800 block in the background
it was also either leaking or out of every fluid that goes in it. currently its parked in the barn with the oil pan dropped so i can replace that gasket. lucas stop leak seemed to work with the trans pretty well. just replaced the belts because the power steering one broke, and there is still a leak in the gasket between the upper radiator hose and the intake that's pouring coolant everywhere.
what doesn't work/isn't there anymore: gas gauge (been replaced with a fuel cell), speedometer, radio, interior lights of any sort, heater (core is gone), horn, coolant reservoir, windsheild washer reservoir, and pretty much anything else you can think of that doesn't help the truck go forward.
plans for this spring: a nice coat of primer because i hate the blue, and i mean i'm gonna do it as legit as possible to make it look good, with some lime green detailing. drop it to the weeds, 5 in the front, 6 in the back or something like that. smaller wheels, maybe some 15in vette rallys, with something wide on the back. 265's? and i want the exaust to be coming out in front of the back tires, corvette style. if i have any money left after that, i'll look into some go-fast parts. i might spray it haha
