New Guy from NC

Just wanted to say hello to everyone and I think this site is great. I have already found a bunch of info here. I am restoring a 1972 442 Clone......or shall I say no record of it being a true 442. It is getting a rebuilt 455 with C heads. Thanks for all the great info!

Thank you everyone! I will try to get some pics up as soon as possible. I tried to put some up earlier, but the site did not like them. I followed the size limits, but still a no go. I will get a Photobucket account or something and post. Thanks for the info 442oldslawyer, as I had no idea a place called Classic Olds is right in my backyard. I need to look more into meeting Jim.

Great! Thank you Jamesbo. I will give that a shot when I get home tonight. She is now stuffed in my garage and in parts here and there. LOL Hope to get more pics now that the weather is getting warmer. I am close to Winston-Salem (Greensboro) area.

Here are some pics of my project. The ones when it was still together was at the previous owners house. I saved it from those ugly fog lights in the bumper and he mentioned something about 22 inch rims. haha I just changed the rear springs and shocks tonight. I also did the Jeep Grand Cherokee Steering Box swap.
