choices choices...
I'm already on to the next thing I should build (already taking car of the 4th gen V6 so no priority lectures). I'm trying to find an old Nova or a Chevelle roller cheap. But I keep coming across 2nd gens. I have a 700R4 and a B&M trans pack, and the 350 from the T/A survived intact. should i keep looking for an older car or build a bumblebee and hope Megan Fox shows up? I could always build a Nova and kill cheerleaders LOL (kidding). I'm staying Chevy with the next muscle car. any suggestions or anybody know where to find some rollers

1500 will buy you the rustiest nova ever or a super clean 80s version 
if you have 1500 bucks and your looking for a project youd need a few more bucks to get a nova or chevelle. some novas are still cheap but the after 73's are...ew

$1500 might buy you a pile of rust scraped off a wrecked chevelle.

I don't know if I'd want to do another 3rd gen....it would have to be an exceptional deal, and I'd have to have all the money up front

I have a tubular cross member designed for a 700r4 in a 75-81 f-body made by bow-tie overdirves. Brand new to you $100, it's all there but the mount which you can get wherever. You would be best off having a 2nd gen one shortened. Yoke might be different too. I also have an extra 2nd gen th350 driveshaft I'd throw in if you need it.
