But seriously folks..........................
Based on what we can see on this double White (is that a racist comment) TA, what should it bring in today's flat economy? It does have some redeeming features, but I'm bugged about the swap to an M20.

You can always change transmissions back but you still have a cut up hump from the process.

Who ever did that didnt know diddlysquat about value of having an original car.

It takes a big mouth to fit a size 12 into! I'm with Lloyd and just sitting back to enjoy the upcoming fireworks.

FTR: The repair is no big deal and could be made invisible by a good metal guy. And I've met diddly squat and he's not a bad guy!

It's actually a heating element that goes in the side of the block in place of the center freeze plug on the drivers side. It has a cord that plugs into it, which I don't have, that also plugs into your standard 110v wall outlet. Pretty simple. My car was driven in Minnesota for the first ten years of it's life so it may have been used quite a bit.

Does it look like this?

[superdutybob]

Yes, except mine is made of solid brass and is in the center plug location.

Makes sense, I wasn't sure what that was - block came from Calgary, car was built at Pontiac plant.

[Brewster]

Neat, I never new that was an option. I'll have to check that out next time we get together, which I hope is soon?

[Brewster]

Its original only once and ever car has issues if you look hard enough. Taken a high dollar car and modify it in todays day and age is not a good economic decision (IMO).

I almost actually did it to my auto car since I always wanted a 4-speed driver just didnt want to take the hit. Kidoddles to you !

Look I'm not trying to pick fights over this I bought the car a long time ago and converted it, It wasn't all that high dollar of a car at the time,All i ask is if you don't know me or the car don't judge and i know everyone is entitled to comment, so everyone can stand down no fireworks and pop corn will make you fat

Hey - it's all good.

That IS one very nice looking SD!

Here's an NOS one on ePay for a '65. The price looks right if somebody needs this thing.

The engine block heater is not installed in the engine but I have it nos still in GM box

[Brewster]

Ditto, No popcorn with fireworks unless someone is bring the Beer for us all to enjoy?

My Dad always told me "Dont talk without thinking" ahhhhhhhhh, didnt mean anything personal brother!

I like your car and even thought about bidding, but I'll need to sell my trailer queen before anything like that happens. I actually just posted it in Hemmings with the option of the pair.
Just burned out on the show car thing and need to move on before I turn that trophy into a #2 driver and loose $$$$$$$$$.

Bob, was your Block Heater a deal option ?

[Norwood]

Remember I like the car.......But I do have one question, why with all the avenues available today did you put the car with a broker
