Just picked up my '74 3.2 after top end rebuild

[Tdskip]

Bill Brewster did the work and we put in 964 cams to conplement the Steve Wong chip I had already installed. No loss in bottom end torque but HOLY COW does it pull over 4,000 RPM now. Roll on power in 5th gear at highway speeds is fantastic.

If anyone is building up a 3.2 I'd highly recommend doing the same.

She is a total rat, like bad. Goes like heck however.

Here she is, remember that she didn't run when I got her, didn't have brakes, tended to run really hot, missing suspension bushings (worn away), wouldn't hold a battery charge and had been tarted up as some sort of Euro Carrera imitation horror in multiple shades of sort of red-ish paint (originally Salmon) that was hiding rust. She is still awful looking but now drives well, is a ton of fun, and as noted above goes like heck. I've spent zero time on cosmetics to focus on how she drives and preserving her structure.

Keen on any ideas you have related to the ducktail. The ducktail looks goofy with the narrow body but I needed the extra cooling prior to the oil cooler I retrofitted. Car is more stable with it on, just looks oversized to my eyes. She'll be stripped to bare metal for a full repaint at some point but not until she has lots of road miles on her.

This is a good candidate for a backdate example if you spread it out over the years.

Perhaps flares front and back for fatter slicks.

You are being very gracious, thanks.

Some cleaning and wax and before you know it I'll have this;
