Here's progress. We stripped the car to the frame, sent the body in for Media blasting and having the frame powdercoated.

After considering the fact Blueflamed brought up that I won't be able to plant power to the rear, I've decided to go with a 400 SBC engine. I will have it done in a couple of weeks. The block is getting treated right now and I'm shopping for components..

I did some research on the Choo choos or whatever and found a place called Honest Charlies that carries what I need, Placed an order for a few parts to get this ball rolling..

I registered on over at an El Camino/Malibu forum and will be doing most of the posting for this project over there and will be posting progress here as I go..
