    Just sold my truck today 1 of 4 that I have so Ive got some cash burnin a hole in my pocket. Gotta have some new shock and ball joints, but Ive found a 71 or72 mav and a Granada I think I can get em for round 150 bucks. What yall think bout buyin em and doin a five lug swap, Ive got a 040 over 302 needin a cam and intake plus all the stuff to install. Sorry so long just wanted some opinions.I know someone will probably ask so Ill answer now NO I wont send the money to you. Ha Ha Ha.

    I like the 5 lug setup plus you also get to go from 9 to 10 in. brakes

    I don`t mean to act like I`m old or something but you should get the disk brakes and better rear end before you start making more power.

    You could prolly get a little of you money back from parting out whats left of the granada .
