    Hey cruzr, based on your avatar are you going to swap the 327 out for a flathead? Or are you going to change your avatar?

    Just going by the number of flatheads you see at runs nowadays I would say the trend of the 60's of swapping a flathead for a SBC has been reversed in the 2000's.

    Nice looking car, enjoy your trip home and after 1 1/2 hours you should be getting used to it.

    Nice hot rod, love the midnight blue color, and it's shiny. Be sure to put up some pix after you get it home.

    Great start, I'm usually faced with a hour and a half just to get whatever I purchased out of a field and onto a trailer. Ha. Maiden voyage home should be fun.

    Cool coupe. Whatever happened with the pale green model A sedan you looked at in Vegas?
