Just so you know that grill is a '62. I can't tell from the pic if it is the aluminum grill or if it's just painted. Oh and those heads aren't the Vortec heads. They appear to be just '88-'95 heads from a TBI 350 or 305.

Misfortune indeed!

You are right, the truck is very straight and very solid. In the end I get a motor with fewer miles on it and I did replace various thing while under there so the whole thing is better than before but it would have been nice to not get screwed! I was told by a friend that the grill was a 61 but whatever year I like it! It appears to be aluminum by the way and in great shape. I will have to look into the head thing a little further as that is what the guy told me they were and I am not expert enough to tell on a basic visual inspection.
