OldGold, I really can't believe you'd destroy a prime example of Packard styling!! SHAME ON YOU!!

On a serious note, YOU ARE MY HERO!!! You need to come down to Wichita and help me build the body on my Speedster!! Love the pics, keep 'em coming!! And to paraphrase an old saying, "If it's too radical, you're too old!" Just pleeeeeessseeee keep the original engine!! (Or at least a Packard V8!) Too many guy's build cars like yours and totally f' it up by putting the everyday SBC in it. Nowadays, it's totally unusual to see an original engine in a car as modified as yours. You'll have more lookers at a car show if you use the straight eight. And if you want a little extra power out of it, I know a secret or two on them!
