For sale 1987 V8 5-speed glass window chop top.

I bought the car and started the engine swap in 2001. I first did the v8 swap and drove it a couple years then got the choptop bug and that spread to more modifications before i completed the chop. I am just not as excited to work on it any more.
Its an 87GT it was blue with silver ground effects but now has a red roof and grey primer over modified areas. The original blue roof came off in pieces during the chop.

The following is a list of work that has been done

355 Chevy V8, Late 70s block
Cylinders and deck machined.
Re-manufactured rods and crank
New flat top pistons, roller cam, roller rockers
Double roller timing chain
HEI distributor with a firing order corrected cap that makes so wires are not crossing each other.
Polished Elelbrock performer RPM air gap intake
Custom air filter box
World product heads with 200cc intake runner 2.08 intake valves and 1.6 exhaust
Fitec fuel injection installed last summer.
POR15 paint on fuel tank when changing the fuel pump.
New braided steel AN Fuel lines with filters
Electric water pump
No AC, The car had it originally so a compressor could be added.

Some bodywork still needs done in the corners, currently grey primer over modified areas
custom smoked acrylic 1/4 windows, one looks real good and the other is not shaped quite right at the front
glass side windows, with tint
new windshield and smoked rear glass
custom tall spoiler risers
Functional Mustang style scoop bonded and molded into decklid,
There is a hole in the deck lid for the air cleaner to pull air from under the scoop

Interior

Dynamat on floor and back wall under carpet
Custom bolt in roll bar with cross bar for 4 point harness, has welded in threaded mount plates
Stock seats currently installed, in rough condition

Custom engine gauges in the aux gauge pod

The car ran 12.9 at 103 mph in the quarter mile before changing to fuel injection and swapping to the bigger heads.
The car still needs the following

Some body work
Paint
Trim around exterior rear window
A-post interior trim
headliner
B-post interior trim
speedometer does not work
shocks and bushings are worn out and makes the car handle sloppy
Maybe quieter exhaust, depends on what you like
