'68 GTO Cloning

This is the first time I've ever posted a build/customization thread so here goes. I bought this car (craigslist photos attached) when I was in Iraq over three years ago. I sent the money via PayPal to my brother and had him drive all the way from an hour southwest of St. Louis to Indiana to pick this car up for me (I trusted him to decide whether it was worth buying) . It has a 400 Pontiac bored .030 over to make it a 406 with a RAIII (Ram Air III) cam, Edelbrock Torker intake (yes, it's a single plane Torker I with a high power band), and a 650 Edelbrock carb. It had a very worn out, sloppy 2.56 rear end when my brother picked it up. The paint job is a good 10 footer. Anything closer, you can notice chips and dings, making it a good driver. More to come.

Mods: Can I change the title to '68 GTO Cloning? I have owned several '69 GTOs and it was a habit.
