That's a great offer Roo.  The history of our sport needs to be saved. I hope you can save the car.
And a generous offer

Roo, if you can put that deal together, I have a pair of the light weight Schwin wheels that I think were run on that car.
I'll start beating the bushes for some tires for the wheels, they are 16". I can get uni tread tires, but I'll see if I can find  better looking tires.

Well, we're working on adding another vehicle to the Floyd flock. My wife's son Bryon has been showing a lot of interest this year (well, last year), so I pulled out this 1963 Dart that's been sitting at Earl's for over 5 years. I plan on building the 225 slant 6 with a few performance enhancements. Can't make it too strong because I'm leaving in the tranny or the heavy duty 7 1/4" rear end ::) Looks like we have a little cancer to be removed/replaced. It's really hard for me to stop chasing it all down but I really need to stop at some point or it will never get completed.
