Was wondering if it had the original engine. Sad it's gone, but you should be able to find a running BB to drop in to make it a "yard driver" for now and keep watch for a '67 L36 engine.
No its a 400 auto he does have an IE code engine near it maybe hell let it go for this car. but i do have a 3904351 running engine i can put in it.

Wish I wasn't 2k miles away. I'd hook up my trailer and come help...:headbang:
The hood was off the car next to it as it sat in a junk yard in east Lancaster Ca. in the early 90s. motor was gone.

My Chevelle came out of Lancaster…one of the best climates for old cars. Zero rust…..

Hook up the Conestoga. We'll run team...CA and back in 4 days..:wink:
Well Mitch, if I brought home another project I'd have to change my SYC handle to "Has more projects than does Too Many Projects"!

Bandit run to CA and back in 96?? BTDT. The last car I bought in CA, S.F. Bay to IA solo non stop. I'm too old for that chit! haha!!

I can pass the handle along to a more deserving person...:laugh: I'm sure there are others on here with more than me.
Yeah, I can feel the old body slowing down now too. I don't think I have anymore 36-48 hr runs left either. I did do 18 hrs twice in Feb on my to and back from FL.
