I kept all of the Original parts as well, I purchased the car in the early 90's and had it painted 3 times, the last time we completely stripped the car right to bare metal, the car has had 4 Different motors and I converted it from auto to Manual. The suspension was completely redone and most of it was Hotckis ( they used to offer a lot for the 3rd gen ). I swapped over to a 9 Bolt rear as well and added the 12 in 1LE Brake set up. I never had issues having the bigger HP and T-Tops but I did weld in South Side Machine Sub frame connectors and other bracing. I have a whole book about the car and what was done, Not much is stock. I really like 3RD Gens and you have a great platform to start with.
