It does look nice. Tell me....(I have always wondered)....Do they do something to the ignition or do you still have to mess with all the tedious ignition stuff like gapping the points and all that.
Also in pic #2 what is that machine next to the driver door looks like a funky popcorn popper?

Also a fan of muscle cars of that era, after all they were contemporary to me back then! 
Finding an SS with documents and matching engine numbers is rare today---too many counterfeitters and "reproduction" parts available---nice find!
Of course you could always temporarily swat that 350/300 for the later model LT1.
Have to pin the rear end to the ground though---all those pony cars were horrible at getting their power to the ground.Thanks for sharing, very nice ride!

For ignition: Many convert to electronic ignition. This car is original except for paint. But, I still may convert the ignition. I think I can do that without hurting "original" aura of the car.

She is scheduled to arrive tomorrow evening. Mrs. kw5413 & the girls are leaving for fun in the sun in Jamaica tomorrow morning. Returning Sunday afternoon so, I get a few days of unabated playtime.

Well kw, I hope you two are happy together.
Me, I'd rather have a newish Mustang or Viper. Those old cars are nothing but work (there's always something to fix) and worry (that something is going to happen to them).

Ha, ha....I hope the dirtiest my hands get is if the pen breaks and I get ink on my hands when signing the repair bill.
