Surfrat,

A rare 69 W-31 convertible...Ram Rod? I would have kept it stock, but it's not my car.

All Mondello, eh? Couldn't Lynn give you any advise on stall? I'm not familiar with Mondello cams, but my Ebrock Performer RPM cam has a torque curve that starts around 2500 rpm. I'm running a 2300 stall on the street and very happy with it. Stock is around 1700-1800. BTW, mine is a 350/350, 3.42 gears.

If you have the money, Kooks makes the best headers. Period.

As to the color, I think you've already made your decision to make the car to your own liking. Pick your favorite color and go for it. You won't destroy the value any more than you have already. I'm in the process of redoing my 71 Cutlass convertible in a mid-80's Corv*tt* "Bright Red".
