.Hey All,
Took my new to me 59 into my mechanic and had him doe a once over. Prognosis, just a bunch "little things". Still has a stammering Ill call it when you stomp on the pedal! Let off a little and she smooths right out. 302 with an Eldebrock manifold and carb. Not sure of the size yet. But had some great, bright ideas with my mechanic. There could be a mini tub in the future. LOL. But for now my goal is to QUITE that cab! Have new parts arriving soon!!!!
