I picked up this 71 for 5k. Both tops, runs and drives. Some rust. Low options but it's getting an LS so I don't care.

O2 Bungs

I bought my O2 bungs from a Warner Muffler in Oceanside, Ca. I welded them in the collecter just under the frame. I hope the pics come out. It's been a long time since I've posted.
