    Thought I'd pass this along: I've been looking for someone to rebuild the top motor for my '70 GS 455 convertible, and I found someone who does a really good job, and very economically. Go to www.topmotorrepair.com and/or do an e-bay search for Bigblock69. Guy's name is Jim, and for $70 (plus my shipping cost of about $10) he inspected, rebuilt, repainted and paid return shipping, along with re-install instructions to aid in line bleeding, and a squirt bottle to refill reservoir. Oh, and he provides a 1 year warranty on his work.
    He tells me his prices will soon be going up, and he also does this in his spare time from a real job, but my turnaround was right at 10 days.

    Beats paying upwards of $250 for a new motor any day!

    See ya' on the road! :3gears:
