My thanks to all for the rapid response, but as of yet, I have not looked at
the car, or even gotten a price. Now that I know a SBC (small block Chevy,
Bill) will fit, I need to know what kind of price range I should be
expecting them to ask. That way, if they ask to much, at least I will know
it, and pass along information to others.
If it is a BN2, I would be more tempted to keep it more original. Except to
make the steering better of course...
Once I look at the car, I will post pictures on my new photopail page, and
ask what folks think.
Thank you all again for your rapid replies.
