   Not yet.  It was late when I wrote that and I was reminiscing about those   
   days.  I did see an episode of "Pawn Stars" wherein they bought "the old man"   
   a '57 Chevy and their ace car restorer put an LS-1 engine in it.  That thing   
   should fly!  Only problem is it's black and that absorbs too much heat while   
   looking nice.  Mine was a turquoise, two-door coupe.  The prettiest car I ever   
   owned.  Very few could stay with me after a 30MPH crack-on.   
      
      
   Regards,
