Thanks! She (the daughter) is really into it and has been helping get it cleaned up. She pulled the engine/trans out herself(with a little guidance)

Plans are keep the outside the same, possible 318/4spd combo-nothing fancy. of coarse the usual-power disc brakes and power steering to make it easier to drive.

We now have one of each:
1965 Chevy Suburban
1959 Ford F100
1953 Dodge B4B

Here is a tiger gold 65 gto I have been working on. The pics are from the day I pulled it from the garage where it sat untouched for 26 yrs.

If the Hilborn is for a rarer engine than a SBC I hope you reconsider. Besides...alot of those conversions don't run all that well.... Cool ride.

the engine is a 435 hp 67 vette motor. pretty rare and too valuable to vette owners to trash on the race track. plan to build another bbc for the coupe. as far as the hilborn 8 stack, theres a couple of places out there that can do a good job on an efi conversion. hilborn does it but its pricey. without the conversion those injection systems have only 2 speeds, idle and wide open. everything in between is tough driving on the street and i want to spend some time crusing around...
thanks for the comments, but this projects time has come.
