Also need an original padded dash NOS, super nice original or a very nice repop. Is carpenter still doing the pads?

I'm pretty sure they're still available...at least I hope so, I need to buy one too. I've been hoping the price will drop a little, but it doesn't look like it's going to.

As far as I know, the Bumpside tailgate is the closest one to yours currently being repopped. Floormats, I don't know.

BackyardResto, your project is just downight righteous considering the engine by itself is worth more than alot of complete cars.

And I'm curious too, how much do you want for your extra 427? My dad would be the one most curious since he'd love to turn his '64 Galaxie into an "R" Code '64 Galaxie. Don't need a price for a ready-to-go motor, but just for all of the critical bits. My dad knows his way around Flatheads and FEs quite well.

On the contrary... there is LOTS of interest. Sunday chat was all about you for a while dude, those in there find you amazing. Just because we are quiet doesn't mean we aren't watching..

Back!
I know what you mean about the rain. I finally gave up on doing any kind of landscaping to my new topsoil, and seeded in some grass in between rainstorms. I figure if it's gonna slow down my slick building, I can at least get an (almost) free lawn out of the deal

Man that box is in good shape. $100 eh? what a deal.
