You are very Correct my friend, only thing is I just used my last 350 SB in my 1977 Buick LeSabre. I guess I could Just grab another one from my friend's Shop, but I am not sure what way to go with this yet.

Hell here in the midwest, thoughs cars are everywhere. I even still have a nice 77 LeSabre Custom Landu 2 Door, I bought it in 2003 and it has sat ever since. That is a nice looking car though.

I too have been stuck watching the show, I do think they pass on a lot of stuff. But to each his own, I guess we all have certain things that spark us, but they also have to be aware of what will sale and what will sit. I sure hope to get over to their shop this summer when I head down to see my...
