That's awesome. I assume it's from the Jack-O-Lantern Formula??? Where are you sending it and what are you going to have done? All stock or are you going to beef it up some?

It's a White 71 TA that's turned a nice corner towards the back-together stage.

Credit goes to the man (very skilled) who started the project and is heading the rebirth!

That's what Butler sends to pick up the engine. It's a stand on a pallet.
