Good looking project.
I have one in my avatar behind a mild build 289. Works great, but I don't get crazy with it because of the wire wheels. What kind of money are...
Keep at it. It only took me 37 years to get mine where it's at. Life kind of got in the way, it sat for 31 years.
In 1969 I tried my damdest to buy a complete 29 Chevy 3 window coupe. But the old guy wanted to keep it, (Going to fix it up someday!)
Cool, Like it!
Looks in pretty good condition. That's about what mine looked like when I bought it in 1971. Have fun with your build.
I've owned my bird since Dec 1967. I did a similar swap in the summer of 69. I used a mild built 390, T-10 and a 57 wagon 9 inch. Used a 4x4 oil...
I put a 400M in my 56 Bird and used a 4x4 pan. I had to make a small modification to the bottom just above the steering linkage.
