I would sure like to see and hear how this car was reunited with its original engine AND transmission. Someone found two needles in the haystack, or maybe they were in separate haystacks.

Can't believe the hack job on that 68. Those Ace Hardware rivets are a scream. And the restamped engine!! Pretty bad.

Thanks to Hylton for having the stones to come forward with this info, and thanks to the previous owner for posting.

Jimmy: You may be an honest guy that has simply been mislead by others. Obviously Hylton does not think so, and he is certainly entitled to that opinion. A word to the wise here. A lot of guys think they can intentionally misrepresent original miles on a car if it is over 10 years old. Not saying you are intentionally doing so, but sure looks like you have a good reason to investigate further. Just because the federal odometer disclosure law does not apply to cars over 10 years old, doesn't mean that common law fraud does not apply. Just ask that St. Louis classic car dealer. They were sued (successfully) for fraud on a misrepresented classic with a rolled back odometer.

Food for thought.
