Reunited

Ronnie,
Great story and pictures. Since you asked for opinions, I'd make it a street car that you and the family can enjoy and have fun with for years to come.
I'd love to see more pictures of it from either back then or today. If you cannot post them up here, I would really appreciate if you could email them to me @ GlennHayesPerformance@gmail.com

I sold my dually truck and trailer and my Chevy II Wagon is licensed so I have been just driving it around town for a couple of years. It's hard on gas, so I'm compelled to pull the engine and 'glide out, as well as the 4.30 gear and spool, and turn it into a street car, keeping my Q-Jet... of course.

Thanks Glenn for the info. The Chevy II is being completely restored at Steve McCreary's shop. The car took a beating while it sat in a barn for 11 years. Steve has replaced a majority of the panels to make it look right. The plan is for a light resto mod and street enjoyment.

I have a 327 that Bub Whitaker is going to make stronger with Heads Up! heads, factory L-79 intake and carb. Vintage Air Gen IV a/c and front runner system. Undecided about the trans, leaning towards the new RS Keisler 5 speed - definately a stick. Complete Church Boys Racing front suspension including coilover DA shocks with 2 inch drop spindles. Church Boys rear multi-leaf springs with 2 inch drop and DA rear shocks. New 4 wheel disc brakes with upgraded/drilled/slotted rotors. Coys C-5 17" wheels and BF Goodrich Gforce Sport radial tires. Interior will be factory "Fawn" color. Paint will be House of Kolors candy burgundy metallic over silver base.

There are many things for consideration and most of the "list" has not been accomplished yet because of funding. But we will get there maybe later than sooner.
