I'll certainly send you a p.m. The frame is painted but I ordered a tubular trans crossmember from Jim Carter to replace the archaic angle iron the PO had done. So a little touch up is on order. The trans is a TH350. We also placed the 305v8 on the chasis BUT I just found a steal on a 1966 283ci complete from pan to carb that is fully detailed. DANG! Got to make a decision and quick. I'd imagine a 60s 283 will have a little more power than a mid 70s 305. Will look up some specs. And quick. Man, it would be nice to have the $ needed to plan a build and stick to it. I'm reduced to bargain find to bargain find. Time to focus a little better.
