Yes it is. It was one I found in a junk yard about 50 miles from where I live last year. Called about it a week later for someone who needed the headlights off it for his but they had already sent it to the crusher 
The guy said he had it for 20 years and only sold a few parts off it and since he haled it off I was the 3rd person to call about it. Thanks for the good commits guys. Hope to have more progress to report on it after school starts back in August. |

Very neat. I will never forget auto shop in high school, too bad it doesn't exist anymore. I was driving my 71 SB at that time. Teach those kids good.

Hey thanks. I drove this very car when I took auto mechanics at this same school when I was a student. Now I am blessed to teach this class. I guess you could say I am the MR Kotter of Auto mechanics. Sad that so many of these classed are dying off. |

Here is another update. The sound did turn out so good since my son worked the camera and was further away from it.

Looks good Dennis. See if you can get them to shoot some epoxy into the engine air intakes, since you still have it open.

lol I was just thinking the same thing as I was reading this thread but more along the lines of epoxy in every cavity.
That would be a project in itself  |

Yes it would, as you'd have to clean every surface that you want the epoxy to stick to. I mainly try to get where I can, and on the back side of any and all patch panels (before they get welded on).
