      M30B30 carbed.  Apparently it runs.  Just need to hook up a battery and give it a shot.  I'll be keeping it auto at first.  Flirting with the idea of 5 speed swapping but the priority is to get it running and driving, then cosmetics.  Then possible trans swap.

          nice find!

          i think you should accidentally swap a m30b35 with 5-speed swap

            This was discussed.  Who knows what the future holds?  I just want to get it on the road for now.

              Cleaned up my keys a bit at work. I'm still surprised that they used to do keys this way.

                  I took them off the chain to polish them up, but I assure you they are back on the chain at this time.

                              This thread has a striking lack of pics.

                                Haha.  Sorry.  Will post some updates soon.  Carbs are out and getting cleaned up.  I'll get some more pics after I get everything re-installed and I get the car up on the lift.
