Brettmc, No the Holley is gone, sold it when I got the Q-Jet. The car that I am looking at is a 73 Trans Am with the SD455 motor.

Default Don't do it!!!!!!

Resist the temptation!
Take it from someone who, over the years, has been confronted with that decision many times. There will be a day you are glad you didn't. No one in there right mind can justify three, but I'm glad I didn't role over to the all the "get practical" demands my wife made over the years. Just last weekend, at the Eureka Springs Covette Show, she said we should buy a newer C5 automatic so she could drive it. That would be great, but problem is she will want me to sell one of the C3's.......not going to happen Hang in there

It's amazing how the women in our lives just don't get it when it comes to cars! I have a 36 Ford street rod, 71 vette and 02 Ford T-Bird. My wife thinks that I have too many toys and if I want something different one has to go.......
