Show Your Big Block A body!
Here's my 1971 Aussie A-body wagon (VG model) that I built up about a dozen years ago (which is why the photos look old). A few friends and I squeezed a 440 up front and had a bit of fun street racing with it. Had a 727 trans and a cut down 8 3/4in (3.23 ratio) diff with 15in rims (custom 8in wide on the rear). It wasn't the world's fastest streeter but it would see off an Mitsubishi Evo or WRX easy enough.
I've still got the wagon but it's only running a hemi six these days and it's Hemi Orange in colour, but it was a hell of alot of fun back then.
I'll post my next project later. It's a 361 into a Aussie A-body ute (pickup).
