    Just picked this one up! Lots of work to do but it's worth it. 350371928_795834308625014_886487270527888786_n.jpg 350367437_181663744529260_7387357549275349584_n.jpg IMG_3378.JPEG 350364705_776175837424824_7333933728966812056_n.jpg

    It'll need a lot of work for sure, but it looks complete. What's your plan?

    Awesome. I've got a '68 wagon and a '69 Bonneville 4 door and love these cars.

    Boy howdy! With that 428 you'll have no problem pulling your camper. Is it an older unit or a more modern one?

    The 428 was the best Pontiac engine built in my opinion. I raced one for awhile back in the early 90s. They came with some of the best flowing heads Pontiac made, number 16 (Big Valve 16, not the later little valve 16).
