Hello Rusty,
Definitely leaning towards road worthy and drive it. It's actually for my 12.5 year old son when he turns 16. It goes down the road ok now, but there is much to do. I'm trying to keep the whole project around $5k, so bodywork and paint will be on us (a learning project :D ) It has a 56' 235 in it which is a good upgrade and I added a power brake MC and booster which seems to work nicely with the stock drum brakes. I purchased a 3.55:1 rearend that was stock on the powerglide cars to replace the 4.11:1 and will add it before long. Paint will end up either a single color, flat paint, or we might do the body work and consider shooting a clear coat over the patina. I guess that is all the rage now, but we'll see when we get down the road some.
It sounds like we aren't too far apart, we live just south of Maryville, MO. What part of SW Iowa are you in??
Chris
