Not looking to do any work on it. He's been on various sites looking and has found some but we don't want to ship it when we move. We were wondering if there were many car shows near TV. Penguin said there was one in Kississimee. Will have to check that out. Thanks for the advice. We probably want to spend around 50,000 or so.
I sure wish I had my two back to sell you! I had a 66, silver, 427 in college (paid $3,200. for it) and after that a 63 split window coupe, black, 327! I sold the split window coupe for $1,100.00 (that's correct!) as it had a rear end problem and being a college student couldn't afford to fix it at the time.

Have you been to the Corvette museum in Bowling Green, Kentucky?

CaptJohn, if you had those cars today you could probably build your own town square
