you can buy a running 351 for $400

and it might cost you a total of another 300-500 to put it in... quit complaining and 351 your car

*edit* the internet never shows sarcasm....[&:]

It don't cost any $$ to go look at it.

Maybe its for real, Guys that have cars in shows and stuff lotsa times have more than one car and I know that I've met some of my best friends thru car events.....
Some of these guys have been my best friends for 30+ years.......
