Many guys buy a car for say $10,000. They put $5000 into it and think it's a $15,000 car, well no it's still worth 10grand maybe a little more or a little less depending on how fast you want to sell.

May as well pull off the hood, remove the radiator, drain all the fluids, take the body off the frame and replace the birdcage while you are in there.
Its probably the WORST (simple) task on a big block vette. Seriously...a 2 piece hose? Who the hell came up with that????
