OPGI. I was on the phone for weeks with the guy. It is a stage IV kit I took off the parts from the dash and package tray I already did.

Then I added a bunch of stuff. Sound deadener and insulation for the roof under the headliner. New chrome buttons for the seats. Assembled door panels and read sides just cause they better. (better than the crap I took out anyway) Assembled console. You know the drill.

It is a A/C car. I added kick panel vents like a non A/C car because I like the cozy wings open and kick panel vents on summer nights. It is real nice cool air. My first car was one of these things,. I want all the good stuff.

I got the hole in the floor and shifter in. That shifter was out of a 72 truck. It is a bolt on handle. I had 3 of them. The charger one was seat level way back halfway on the seat. The shorty one I got I am not with that. I can shift just fine with the 66 factory hurst I had I wanted that back.

So I took the truck one re drilled the mounting holes and cut and ground off the unwanted part. Then bent it for console use. Perfect now for me arms reach in all gear sitting with my back on the seat. It is a 220 muncie. I am getting the O/D from gear venders to. 373 a little to steep for freeway to me. I am old it is a toy. Cant take it with you when you die right spend it.




I got the console hump already. Not sure what is going on there yet. When the console arrives I will get the shifter and floor and console all on the same page.



I gonna fool with getting the Z Bar and linkages for the clutch while this is going on.

Anyway boat is done and tucked away. Wife said get this done now while it is cold because i be playing with the boat once it warms up and wont have all this time.
