I have no idea what tranny is in it, the motor is a 305 in it , but this is an 81, I dont know if thats good for your plans. He said it ran good but had low oil pressure, I think it had a hair over 100k miles on it.

Floyd,

If you decide to go with Chris car. I still have the old 92 Camaro. I'm going to strip the drivetrain, anyway. The crankshaft from the motor in the car is designated to another project. It is a 305 motor. If you could use the block, heads or rods. I'd be glad to donate them. You'll have to remove the pistons, LOL!

I'd need to make arrangements to get them over to Chris, they could go with the car. The drivetrain is still in the car, so, I would also need a timeframe to get them out and clean them up a little.

I know it's not much, the best I can offer at this time.

Time for a quick update. We have had several people offer cars and are trying to decide what body style to run. The kids are not sure if they want to run an older car or stick the the Monte concept. Thanks to all that have offered support and donations. We have compiled a list of items that we lost.
The car had a 6 point roll cage
sub frame connectors
turbo action shifter
Jegs guages
autometer tach and shift light
Jegs switch panel
Warrior(I was corrected) wheels with Hoosiers all the way
hurst line lock
accel ignition.
Full interior with new covers that was out of the car for paint.
Simpson camloc 5 point harnesses
Moser 12 bolt with 4.88 gears and a spare set of 5.13 still in crate
2 305 stock blocks.
3 Sets of stock heads
200 metric trans
th350 trans
2 engine stands
moroso valve covers
solid motor mounts from Jegs
Complete craftsman tool box and tools (I got a new one)
Tach light and a cam degree kit that was on loan
Jegster Drag race suspension kit
Cannon Digital Camera
David lost a ton of paint stuff and some tools of his own along with 2 brand new paint guns.

I really hope the guys that took this stuff needed the money to feed their family. I know times are tough for a lot of people and although that excuse doesn't make it right, it makes things a little easier to swallow.
