As a side note, I put the 350 up on Craigslist for $550. Guy stopped by, heard it run, shook me down $50 and I threw in the untested trans for free.
"Yep, it still haunts my dreams from time to time...." You guys should not worry about parting out rust buckets, it's called recycling. At this time the only way to make some live is to let some die. I parted out pieces from over 6 different cars to build the X-Camino. I had a great time doing it, cleaned up a few of my friends back yards, made something nice out of a big pile of parts, and never looked back. Duane
