Awesome! Man I remember building the 401 in stages because EVERYTHING seemed to cost 2-4x what a SBC would have cost to rebuild. Loved that car, drove it across the country once and back and forth a few times between LA and northern Nevada. Had power windows and the 4-speed and Posi and that was pretty much it for options.
I bought it from a dentist in the San Fernando valley, just a really cool dude. He drove me from his house to where the GS was stored in his ‘66 Electra 225 and blew a few lights along the way, thought I was going to die on that trip....
Then I towed it back from Northridge to Claremont with a tow bar attached to my old land cruiser, and almost died on that trip getting it home!
Fun to reminisce....
