Re: DANA "427" Camaro found...thanks to Jeff Chlupsa
I **think** I remember Bert saying the additional shipping expense from CA to HI for the loose take-out 350 SB motor was too pricey, so having no need for it...it was discarded. The original factory hood wouldn't fit in the trunk either for shipping to HI, so it's a gonner too. I'm experiencing the same riddle now...trying to arrange shipping for the "roller" car, while the engine is still on an engine stand...it nearly doubles the shipping quotes I'm getting.

If you really want it done, I would suggest going straight to the top.. Marcel.

Re: DANA "427" Camaro found...thanks to Jeff Chlupsa
Besides being probably the most significant find in recent memory,what amazes me most is how it sat in the same spot through four decades-the owner HAD to know the value,did nothing with it,and being a relatively known item,noone managed to persuade him to sell it sooner?.To the victor!
