Hey fellas! I'm an old newbie! LOL....name is Joe...live here in Colorado. Been an A body fan all my life with a 71 Chevelle and a couple LeMans from days gone by. Built an 81 Malibu and sold it....G bodies are not as fun. Anyway...just bought a 72 LeMans Sport on Friday for the new project. Hope your all sitting down....454 BBC.....yeah....you read it correct! Originally a bucket seat/console car....btw...those are long gone and now later model seats front and rear are installed. Pretty nice car....gonna need a whole bunch of TLC. Here is the next kicker....it has a 72 GTO front clip. All kinds of brackets and parts in the trunk....hood latch mechanisms and all the seat belts....haven't even had the chance to go thru it yet. What is really killing me is the prices of stuff nowadays....Strato Bucket Seats....we used to buy these all day long for 50-125 a pair in damn good shape....now real junk is going for 400-700. Sorry for being so longwinded....look forward to chatting with you guys and will get some pics up as soon as I can.
