Update on the 427.
This Biscayne is a total loss:( It has a 4speed and its green and rust.
Theres no trunk, floors the seats are gone. It does run, The body and crossmember are wasted. I just hope geting it up on the flatbed with out it coming apart. The origanals owner's widow said its a L36 what ever that is.
I'm going to get some pics and send it to carsinbarns. Looks like I'm the second owner of a car that roted outside for 20yrs. The odomiter reads 36985.
