I am about to inherit my fathers '69 442. It is all original, as far as I know, except for the rear end and rims. It has been sitting in the garage for about 10 years now and I am interested in bringing it up to working condition. I'm not sure exactly what is going to be needed, but I want to convert it to unleaded fuel. Personally, I'm not a "wrencher." Nor do I have the time right now so I was looking for a guy/shop in the Chicago area that may specialize in 442s. or if one of you had a good experiance with someone that I can be refered to would be ideal.

Any and all advice and comments would be apprecited.

Thanks, Jim.
