    STAGE III Lost Experimental 455-4 Bolt Main Block.

    Well, since a German Shepard jumped its fence and attacked my leashed dogs (long story) on our acreage I decided to push hog a trail deeper into the woods.
    Beautiful day & the dogglings enjoyed new sniffing area:)
    They insisted on inspecting the remnants of my 72 Stage 1 “roller” (1 of 5 in Sand Piper) that’s been languishing here since it was vandalized back in 2000 (yet another long story).
    I was going to make a kid a hood deal on it since I am too screwed up to save it but phone broke a year ago losing his contact info and he has never called back so it may become my main attraction on my new trail heh heh.
    Anyone got a load of junk to trade me for my 70 “GSX” don’t be afraid to PM me.
    P.S. Anyone know what kind of tracks those are on top of my frame.
    Found a lot of carcasses lately so suspecting more coyotes (lil big for raccoon?).
    Anyhow that’s about it from here, time to go tromp around some more but thought someone might enjoy seeing a 1 of 728 sitting in the North Carolina woods. 40420288-37EC-4B24-A954-9A3C335CA2C1.jpeg 3CF3F36E-025B-472C-8EF7-8E340AFBC21C.jpeg 4187B14C-33F2-427C-ABA3-F78C9A3A30F5.jpeg 110767C5-48D1-4DD0-BC87-542D39811C85.jpeg AEF015D6-05A2-478C-B430-8724306EC0B4.jpeg 80340EBF-AC3D-4F28-842A-957D057575DF.jpeg CE4F7690-696E-42AA-A905-AACCFCCE57D5.jpeg 3AC31F31-1544-4941-B036-65631789FFBB.jpeg

    Hey Dano my friend, sounds good to me buddy,I have several options as the doors and fenders and most of the interior were removed when it was vandalized.

    Car has its original 3:42 in it as well as disc brakes (original 14” 1972 chrome rally wheels).

    . I have a hood too but not sure if I want to let that go (wasn’t original to car).
    You’ve got my number : )

    Appreciate it duuuuude:)

    I am as told they had a big block Chevy in it (another reason I HAD to try and save it 23 years ago).
    So probably 454 BBC if I had to guess (blasphemy !).

    It will test ya but it can be done,Mike.
    It’s rough, but I have seen some of your nice cars so I am sure you have the resources to save a Stage this rare.
    Sorry I missed your call Dano, was laying down & I mute my phone.
    Really excited for someone to save this car:) upload_2023-1-25_17-3-39.png
