Unless you're in love with the car and MUST have it..

IMO a positive displacement supercharger on one of these would make it a beast to drive.
Running a 427R, the beauty is it drives nice and easy if you keep the revs down. Supercharged, you can probably break those tires loose in any gear. At least my Avons stick in 4-5 and sometimes 3rd.

Also, old automatics suck to drive. If you forgot how the old 70s autos felt.. they're terrible compared to the computer controlled autos of the 2000s and up. Resale is bad too, people want manuals in these, rightfully so.

The rules for engagement in Australia are way different than the US. Much more restrictive for engines. Some even resort to using, gasp, a Chevy engine.
