Outstanding! Good luck on your dream come true. However, you really don't have to watch out for British Sports cars anymore, but watch out for the rice and crouch rockets.

But in this area, I just never found one. Heck, way back when I even went to the local Chevy parts man and talked about buying all the parts to build a new one. Now I wish I had. But between life's daily duties, and hardships, I never got the chance, til now. Thanks to this list and message boards, come Saturday, my 64 Malibu SS will be rolling off the truck, fresh from Arizona, ready for me and my fifteen year old son to restore. It's got the light blue interior like mine had, and a 283, which, unfortunately, I have learned it is not the original. But hey, close as my poor pockets can get being on long term disability. I'm about 150 lbs heavier than back when I had my chevelle, but she can handle it. My garage, which hasn't been cleaned out for years, is now ready and waiting, with tools just waiting as anxiously as I am. I won't sleep a wink til the old gal is home and off the truck. I've been sent some 30 photos of the car so far, from every angle and position possible, including from underneath. Solid thru and thru and starts out 80% original from what I can tell so far. There is a search underway for that original engine and I'm told about a 50/50 chance she is still learking around where the car came from. So I won't give up hope. But in the meantime, we plan to chrome up the engine in her, like I used to have, just to give her a shining new life. So yep, ya got to love em.
