Cool boat 1

Hi another new guy! Just purchased a 57 super 88 2drht about 30 days ago. car has 60,000 miles and had been stored since 1970. Came fron Ohio and was stored indoors so only a little surface rust on the frame but chrome has some small pits and the motor is frozen. Ive loaded the motor with sea foam but so far no luck on getting it free so since I have a 455 (early 70's) and a 700r4 i've decided to install them in the car. I saw that CITCAPP has a 57 with a 455 in it I would welcome any advice about the chane offer that he may care to share. I will post photos soon.

Welcome to CO. Pat (citcapp) will chime in soon, much experience there. Too bad about the original engine. Perhaps it can still be saved, just find a gorilla to lean on that breaker bar.......1 inch drive should do it.

Talking Welcome to CO Boat 1

(Yawn) just sitting down at the computer, had that first cup of coffee and am greated by another 57 Olds, what a way to start the day. Jamsbo, we may not have the numbers of th 69's but we do have class and style something the 69's are sadly missing.

Boat 1, send me a pm with your e-mail and I will send you information, details and pictures of my swap.

What a great day
