hi all - newbie here. i'm over from cruizin forums.
i'm picking up a one owner 1970 kingswood on Friday, reco'd 186, trimatic, bench seats, no rust and great paint, mint retrimmed interior - stock as a rock incl factory aircond.
all on gas too.
plans just to lower it and fit venetians and cruise the ring out of it over summer.
will post pics when i get it.
also building a twin turbo 186 with hopefully a blue crank and starfire rods and ACL HE pistons - i have 9port head i scored for nothing (!) with big valves, 308 valve springs and eBay roller rockers. i think it's out of an appendix J car.
anyways, i look forward to being of help when needed.
cheers.
