thanks for the info, but no sticker in the glove box and the seats have new covers. Will dig a little deeper.

The engine looks to be original except for the edelbrock carb. Unfortunately she is sick and will need to be pulled for overhaul starting next week. Going to collect casting numbers off the block and heads to see what I have.

Jacked up rear end and counted rotation. Looks like I have a non posi end with 3.78 ratio. Need all I can get with the 35 inch tires. Sits well, not too lifted.

My youngest son has quit driving the vette and claimed the truck. Owned it once about 5 years ago. Every week he would ask when I was going to buy it back. Traded it for a daily driver with the condition that I would have first opportunity to buy it back. Got it back with a new carb, transmission and working air plis a set of new tires for the same price that I sold it for. Some days are just too good to be true.
