The original engine is in the car, they were reunited post auction. The story goes the owner of the engine had found the car but hadn't bought it yet. Shared the story with Milt & Milt went & bought it. As long as the car was in Milts hands, the motor would not be in it. When the buyer won the auction, the owner of the engine approached him and soon thereafter a deal was struck.

Jerry MacNeish rebuilt & re-installed the original engine, it now resides here in CT.
