I do write ups on cars sometimes, well I’m gonna do one on my own car.
As of 1/8/24
1970 Chevy Impala 4-Door “Goldie”
Owner: Anthony Stoll aka “Tony Jenkins”
Engine: 350 Small Block Chevy
Transmission: Powerglide
Aspiration: N/A
Rear End: GM 8.2 10 Bolt
Electronics: Factory Points ignition
Horsepower: no idea, slower than slow
Additional Details:
“At 15 years old I bought this as my first car, this car led to one of the most awkward conversations in my life, telling my grandpa I bought it (after him advising me to not buy a car) while heading to Route 66 Dragstrip “Pa I bought a car” “you bought a WHAT???”
This car led to me learning a bunch of stuff, but also learning that you can indeed make a j***y barely running vehicle into a nice cruiser on an extremely and I mean EXTREMELY tight budget, with a little work of course. It also gave me the chance to have it in the Muscle Car and Corvette Nationals in November of 2023 and get a “Shining Star” award
My current plans are to swap in a 12 bolt rear end in the car sometime in 2024, do some engine work and transmission work, and make this thing a little more on the fun side, make it be able to move out of its own way. Overall, I love this car and I’m excited to see what’s next for it.”
