I almost swapped out my MEL 462 (same as the 430) for a '70 460 due to ease of part availability, but when I found you can get tri power I was all...
UPDATE! Contact Moon directly as we exceeded their expectations so they are now taking the emails directly....

Did you buy that set up!!!??? I hope so. Looks like he wanted either $350 (cheap!) or $550 (just about right). Let us know. Not sure about the...
There were a lot of pop up car companies in the teens and twenties. If anyone visits Pittsburgh you have to make your way to the Frick Car and...
