    well I was going to build to auto cross, but my wife got in it and has now gone all "Christine" on it.

    told her to get in it and say "show me" and see if it would build itself lol.

    I do plan to pull the 250 6cyl and put in a 302 crate motor and new upgraded front suspension, then see where it goes.

    My first "advice" would have been to get rid of the big bumpers, but it looks like that was already done.
