New here and figure it's time to do some learning. 3 a bodies. 3 360s. Have been sitting about 10 years stored improperly. Just here to do reading mostly. I'll be working on the van first. A100. Then a dart sport. And after a demon if I can ever afford someone to remove a serious car ruining dent. I've got a lot of books. Spare parts a bb400 and a blower sitting around. So just getting this adventure started. Any pointers will be helpful. I'm more of drive train and electrical kind of guy. Not so concerned about interior or body. Gutted is just fine for me. Cheers

Little update on the van. I've sorted most of the electrical gremlins. Besides fuel pump power. Things are a little weird in here. But it lives and fires makes 65 lbs of oil pressure. Thought this ignition box was pretty cool. It's switchable. And removable.

I understand you may have some cats.....
 
Reading a little further the van isn't an a body. The demon hung a wheelie into a fence post after a hi stall converter was added. It used to run 12.0 bracket at LACR before that. It is a shell. The van got the guts and ran an 11.90. but that motor has expired. The dart was an eBay buy I drove in hi school and the Monaco was my brothers. Pops has kept them an is no longer able to work on them so I hope to get them all going again.
