WOW! that was a lot of work for one day. Great project. So where are you today? Is the last post pretty much where you are at?

Manta build photos
I have set it up for QA-1 coilovers on all 4 corners, powdercoated the frame, and am setting up 4 wheel disc brakes now.
Stay tuned and see how that unfolds .... I will keep going on this thread and get us up to present time.
Who will be next to start their build thread ? ? ?
The 327 engine was hopelessly locked up.
So I bought this 350 crate motor with super low miles, for a super low price.
The motor I got was not fast enough for the owner of this '59 Corvette:
There are great deals on motors out there. This shop here puts 600 hp LS7's in everything and no one wants an old iron engine like this ... they don't even want LS1's anymore!
After I drive it with the 350 and Corvair trans I might want to go LS and Porsche trans, I am not sure ... we will see.
I might want to add something else to the car or do nothing ...
