I was looking at the Barrett Jackson sale of the car in 2017, and saw that it still had what was probably the original radiator.  This owner had it removed, and it is gone.  Just makes me a bit sad.

Also on Lost Muscle Cars FB page.

Thoughts about cost of putting this car back to original configuration?  Especially if some of the removed parts are gone.  Listing shows all the modifications done to this original drive train car.  I get that you do what you want to what belongs to you, but it seems the owner would have been better served by purchasing a clone or other non original car.

Does this look like a legit tag?

An $80K hair cut in 6 months.  Drove the car 150 miles.  A little over $500 per mile.  Yikes.

Obviously, the final picture shows the true installer.  Looks great.

Thanks, Jerry. 

Darryl, the most important thing is that it is a labor of love, and we all appreciate you letting us watch it progress.  Thank you!!

I have often wondered what the odds are of finding an original engine for a car.  I would guess, astronomical.  My opinion-if you have a nice Chevy motor in the car, why bother with spending the money on something else,that is still just a nice Chevy motor, not original, and may deprive someone else that is looking for that engine..  Just my 2 cents.

Fantastic news.  Congrats!
