Congrats to Rob. Its nice to see this car out and about again.
Sorry, I find modern engine swaps revolting. Keep your G, R, or U series in your Roadster!

Great car, great story, thanks for bringing her out for some fresh air last weekend, and I'm glad to see she has a wonderful new owner. Raul negotiated visiting rights, I'm sure....

you didn't hear it from me...but word on the street says the engine block will be painted red and a pink carbon fiber dashboard installed. A bright red MSD box will then be placed somewhere super visible in the engine bay.

That is so several years ago...
Just make sure if he does all that work that he puts the old original heater core and starter back in the car after the restoration...
