I voted for the Orange 69 Big Block. I sold my 68 Lemans Blue 427/390. It was a finalist a while back. Still like the early ones 68-72.

The blue '70 is nice but your yellow '67 is stunning.

OT, but thanks! We are lucky to have it so close to downtown; it's got a cool craftsman vibe in the front with room to spare inside- downside the garage is just not enough for my little collection and the daily drivers and I can't get a car around to the basement. Upside - there's a basement for our junk! Will order lift.

I'm all about the craftsman vibe, although as you point out, sometimes they can use a little more space - but then they wouldn't be craftsman.
