    Finally got a engine for the 50 CHEVY. It is a Dec. of 68 427, 400HP. Corvette motor that has been rebuilt 30 over. Got a lot of little things to get yet but its a start. I'll need to get brackets and pulleys, carbs, ect. I'll try to update as I go. Its been 32 yrs since the car has been on the road,or strip.

    Your car is really sweet looking and the color with the windows is a killer!!!!!!

    How long have you been building it?

    I would love to own it.

    please take pictures of the install. I have a 468 that I was thinking of installing in my 51 but not sure if would fit without major surgery.

    That's one fine old gasser, I know Matt from another site. You guys have some nice cars. Is the front end one piece lift off? Ron

    Wow, that's great you still have that manifold, ones I have seen available sure bring a lot of money. For this car the intake that is on there now is what was on it back when, otherwise I'd have to have one.
