What Billy said would certainly be the easiest way to get out. it will live a long time with a 2GC I have not looked in a while, but I think 230 is now 226. If it was light in O, you would really have to load up to get to Q. I think P is the way to go at 13.45. Good Luck

Still shows 230hp..
Should be painted in few weeks finally.
Needs glass and interior.
Leon Miranian has the trans.
Need roll bar and fuel system.
Engine has 4bbl and two Qjets rebuilt for K/SA..
Currently an Impala, but can convert to Biscayne or Bel Aire.
Do not have a place to work on it conveniently.

Yes, big car hasn't been reduced as much as Camaro /Nova..Still a decent combo.Should be able to get hp off if you play along.

Doesn't need a roll bar with the 2 bbl combos.

How do you convert an Impala into a Bel Air or Biscayne..pray tell?

Yeah, considering a Biscayne would be a 2 door sedan with a different roofline, I doubt just changing the emblems would get you thru tech.

Bel Air and and Biscayne roof line same as Impala...
Caprice is different, squared off.
Impala and Caprice six tail lights.
Bel Air and Biscayne are four.

It doesn't matter, Biscayne, Belair or Impala are all O/P/Q.
