You have to bring the 57 into town next in spring.
Coming in later tomorrow nite? Give us a call, we might still be over at Chris`s after the A&W.

I'll call you when I get into town. The 57 might make it into your place next summer but not the city yet.

I got about $900 into the 78 including purchase price. I am now thingking about putting a 351 in it or maybe beef up the 6 with a cam and some headers, I haven't decided yet. The motor in it now is turning out to be an oil burner so it needs something soon.

What`s your fuel mileage like with the 6 Colin? If it`s great than I`d do a quick ring/bearings and a valve job. If not I`d go for a 302/351.

When ever I look at that type of mag I see too many ads for garage sale stuff, everything from baby clothes to dish washers, beds, ect. Besides I like pictures too.
I usually just get bored and give up, at times the Truck Trader is ok.
