Default Win a vette

Just came across a site to win a vette.

www.ronald-mcdonaldhouse.org in Madera, CA.

454 hp '65 coupe with a 5 spd AND the origional engine / tranny.
$3 for 1 ticket
$10 for 5
$20 for 15
$50 for 40
$100 for 100 ticket

Good cause. Nice car. It'd be really cool if someone here won it.

what would you do with the engine/tranny encased in glass ?
(go to the site and look yourself)

I would take the engine and trans out of the car and put it in my '82, then put the original engine back in the '65.

The '82 power plant is getting tired. 'Seems like a good way to wake it up again!
