For $50 it's a dream.

It's gonna be a long road of work but IMO it will be worth it once the car is finished.

the 350 wouldnt be to bad but personally i would go with the 454, unless you plan to race it, why not have a louder bigger engine, thats just my opinion, im working in a techshop for autobody and the older guys in there just restored a 67' Mustang GT500 and put a 454 into it, it sounds so awesome, l love cars <3:

well, i was thinking about dropping my 454 into it, but i got talking with a few people, and they said drop a 350 LT1 because the 454 top end isnt that good. the 350, got lots of HP and a decent top end. the 454 only got HP

Love it, just love it. i'm so going to go to a junkyard and see what i can scrounge up :XD:

 

 

 

Keep us posted, and you should set short term goals for yourself, replacing/restoring a certain part of the car before a certain date as to make sure that you don't lose interest and it ends up sitting in a garage for 20 years, that's going to be the biggest worry.

 

Good luck though!

Take it to pimp my ride?

That Car has much potential.. I remember My Best Mates Uncle Buying a Firebird.. He bough it for ̢̮â¬Å¡Ãâã200 (United kingdom Money ^^ for those who are wondering) it wasn't in as much bad state as yours but I think (as he's extremly rich I mean WOW rich) it took him just over 5 months To make it look New (His Brother and Step Brother helped him a bit)

 

 

 

But Dude, your gonna need to do a lot of work on that, Spend Quite a few Dollars On it, but In the End you'll be proud of what you have done, and all that time spent would be for a good reason ^^ :D
