Big Tim Posted March 30, 2011 Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 Wow, We were in nearly the same situation with my great grandfather's 74 454 chevy pickup. Except we caught up to it while dad's cousin still had it, and he had lost interest. Now for the fun resto part. I hope it all works out for you.

Cramer Posted April 12, 2011 Report Share Posted April 12, 2011 Man that is a nice car! looks like the current owner takes good care of it. Hopefully the two of you will be able to work something out on it. Let him keep the drivetrain or something like that. Good luck, and glad you got to see it first hand. Had to be a great feeling.

BlueAKSSS Posted April 13, 2011 Report Share Posted April 13, 2011 Wow that thing looks like its in awesome shape, Chase, you have to get that back! Like sinr98 said let him keep the motor and trans and make a deal! I drove my 55 wagon for the first time ever the other day with its newly swapped LS 5.3L and 4 speed and all I can say is wow they are amazing old cars.
