The car looks good. What are your plans with it?

I'm planning to somewhat restore it, but as a daily driver. I'm more trying to do a resto-mod thing with it. To where I restore it but do certain mods that make it better as a driver.

That's what I'm doing with my 85 CHP. A previous owner added the larger 11" 87-up front brakes, and the suspension was beefed up as well. Since I like to drive it so much, I plan to keep it as a better-than-stock driver, without going too far that the car couldn't easily be put back to stock. Sounds like you may have a similar plan for yours.

Yeah that's pretty much what I plan on doing. I want to try and find out some more info about the car. What's a good starting point? Contacting the CHP? My GF's friend's BF is a police officer but not CHP but I was gonna see if he might be able to ask them or something.

I've contacted the CHP Motorpool on my car. They said that it's been too long. And that our cars were around before they started putting all their information on computer. All the paper records are gone. :-( I've also got a CHP buddy that could not find anything. If you get a good lead, maybe you could help me find out about mine, too.
