Let's see I got two extra front bumpers, two front fenders, another steering wheel, a hood from a '79 I believe and maybe 1 extra grill. Yeah it has been there a while. The tires were dry rotted and the tank leaked some gas out when we got it home (after it sat out for about a week) After we tuned it up a bit it ran good and thats when I ran into that problem. The guy we bought it from said the carb had been loading up so we figured putting a kit in and replacing some old parts would fix it. That made it run even better but same problem still came up. Other than that problem I'm pretty confident in it. It has 2 thrush glasspacks on it but the one on the passengers side has a huge hole in it which is annoying. I'm thinking once I get this problem solved when taxes come back I'm going to have the engine rebuilt and have a bigger cam put it in.
