Oliver,
Thanks for the post regarding vintage MOPARS. It was interesting and
brought back memories of the hemi engines and torqueflite transmissions. I
am a fan of them also but have always been partial to the GM products of the
period (but not current models). Many old Chevys, probably far more than
any other brand have survived, and the interchangeability of later model
Chevy parts as well as the huge industry of after-market manufacturers,
Classic Chevy International and Danchuk, to mention only two, make it easy
(not cheap) to continue them in service.
Harvey
