If it turns out you do need axles, it looks like they're around $200 each. Part # 15938134
From this thread https://www.chevyhhr.net/forums/comm...c-axles-57070/
Interesting, while nosing around the internet, found this.

They say they fit, and CarID agrees, as does autopartsway Canada. Amazon doesn't like these part numbers, tho.

There are kits out there and used super chargers, most kits require a used or rebuilt super charger, a member collected all the required pieces and sadly he passed away before he completed the swap.

What a great find, especially for the price!! At that price, one doesn't mind putting a few $'s into it to spruce it up and bring up to spec, and it looks like you got a plan already.
Have fun with it - they are one heck of a car. Oh, by the way............... we LOVE pictures when you get the chance to post some up. :)

Welcome X-1,
You will like it here, these guys really know their stuff!
That is a CRAZY good deal, I thought I stole mine, but you really did the deal.
I am not a huge fan of black cars in the Deep South summertime (had one and learned) but black and red is a killer combo.
I was born in Palm Beach and spent time in St. Pete/Clearwater, the Keys and South Beach but it has been decades now so I wouldn't know anybody. For what it's worth, I have turned over everything for my cars beyond filter changes and cosmetic stuff to Pep Boys. If you find a good one with a real mechanic or two, they are golden. They let me bring my parts and charge a reasonable fee and are open on weekends.
