The interior that you have pics of look pretty decent. Are you doing a full restoration? That would be sooo fun to do.

92lxsleeper · 10-30-2008, 01:40 PM

im planning on a full restoration. if the motor isn't any good im gonna throw a 5.0L in it. i saw one on youtube with a 302 and a AOD and it was pretty sweet.

924banger · 10-30-2008, 01:45 PM

Sweet!!! Keep us informed along the way.

92lxsleeper · 10-31-2008, 08:25 PM

well i got it home today, and i hotwired it. the engine is seized lol. any suggestions as to what i can throw down the spark plug holes to try and free it up with?

that old school AM/FM radio sounds pretty sweet.

im seriously thinking a 2.3turbo swap. hopefully mg man will step in and help me out a lil.

You can get brand new CD player/radios that look like that.
