Attractive looking car. I can understand the crate motor as it probably cost less than rebuilding the nail and is fully reversible. I've considered it myself
I saw that car at an estate sale in NJ back in April. The Car is VERY well done. The owner/builder was David S. who passed away. The sale was being done by family members. Unsure who owns it now. David's other car was a 300 4 speed Skylark.... also VERY nice. Here's another thread with a few more pics and contact info for Rich, who I believe was Davld's nephew: http://65gs.com/board/index.php?topic=1629.0
