Welcome and nice car. The gear head instinct here would be ask if you have ever tried to track down the engine and rear axle. Of course, that subject may be coming up in the next chapter...

The car hauler search never really got off the ground, I did find a correct engine block for the car, right engine casting number, correct date casting number, and correct MO engine stamp with the right date that coincides with the casting date and the date on my data plate on the car. But I'm always looking. I found out well after I took ownership of the car that a friend of mine has the 12 bolt that came out of my car before the Dana was installed. He got it from the second guy who raced it that Bob Johnston sold it to. But that 12 bolt was not original to the car. The original one might have been blown up in it's earlier days of racing. I have casually looked for the Muncie and the rear end but, never found anything with the right partial VIN.
