    Picked up two 54' chevies the other day. A 4 door belair and a 2 door post both with original 1954 titles, and have been sitting in the original owners colorado back yard since 1968, these things are untouched but they are kind of rough after sitting. Any how the story I'm trying to tell is the day after buying them an old fellow pulls up and wants to trade one of the 6 cylinders for a 54 build hes doing and wants to trade the SBC that a previous owner put in his. I say ok cause I wasn't planning on using the 6 anyway. After pulling them both and trading I look up the serial numbers and I scored a 64'-68' SBC 283 with the aluminum powerglide. I'd say a pretty good deal and he was happy with it too.

    Hopefully the 2 door turns into the next project
