I quite like his stuff, mostly from when I was younger, but I still appreciate his work.
Girl as in 59? If so, I've had it out a few times, except right now the transmission had to come out again, the whole system is a torque-flight, so they had to drop the entire differential to get to it. But other than that it's virtually mint.
I'm not entirely sure about the chevy 327, I'm used to the AMC version. It probably has hydraulic lifters, like the AMC but obviously the 454 is going to have a lot more torque and BHP from the stock engine.

did you know someone at a shop who you trusted to do the work when you went into the project? or did you look around a bit?

Dude, I couldn't type fast enough with four hands to warn you about the sneaky mechanics. I learned my lessons the hard way, seeing as though the 59 was my first overhaul. But really, before you get in to it, yeah. Find someone you can trust, for those people will stall on any opportunity they can, and charge you for every time they pick up a screw driver. I've got good people now, but there's a reason why the car took almost 2 years to complete. I know the car inside and out now, like every last bit, it's a good feeling knowing that I help put her together.

Yeah, a friend/mechanic of mine bought an old gas station on Vancouver Island. We're turning it into our own AMC restoration shop.
I'm basically gonna be here all weekend, drawing until my little fingies can't.

Ich habe eine neue Theorie entwickelt: das Kartoffelversum. Zwölf Kartoffeln in einem Kreis, eine jede hat einen anderen bräunlichen Ton. In der Mitte ist die Megakartoffel, der Kartoffecleus. Wenn man von jeder Kartoffel isst, wie auch immer sie gekocht sein mag, erreicht man den inneren Kartoffelfrieden und damit Harmonie im Universum.
Yeah!
