The sound of a solid-lifter, big block Chevy under the hood (with factory sidepipes) is music to my ears. The car is definitely crude by today's standards but that's okay.
I second the request for pics.

Yours is definitely the peak of GM / Corvette design. Which wheels do you have on yours? What color?

Last year I was half way looking for a 67 327 / 350. Briefly had a 72 LS5 steel cities grey convertible.
