WOW - What a find! Hats off to you all!

I find it quite interesting that Dana would use a SB SS for a
427 conversion. So many things were different between the
two drivetrains. Had Dana used any other SB's for conversion?

That gave me goosebumps reading that.

I can't begin to imagine the thrill of uncovering something like that which has been in hibernation for 36 years.

Awesome...absolutely awesome.

All time favorite hood. Did the car leave the factory with a Muncie trans?

Awesome!! We can stop holding our breath now! I saw some pics of this car a little over a year ago - simply couldn't believe it! Way to go Steve and Jeff, can't wait to go see it when it's back in the states.

As it's been said before...couldn't have happened to a nicer guy! And kudos to Jeff...another one of the good guys!

I bet Brian was happy to take a trip to Hawaii to get a closer look at this piece of history...and to get out of the cold

Congrats Steve, Brian and Jeff....and a big thank you to the owner who kept it all of these years!

Congrats, and it is in my favorite colour. It reminds me of when I found YS-074 in Kansas. You are going to have one beautiful car when finished.
