Hey Rain, don't want to rain on the parade, but we are talking major expense with LESS DEPENDIBILITY almost no matter how well it's done. If this is a hobby type project, you'll be really happy with this. If you expect "new car" performance and reliability from the updated restomod, then consider this carefully. I've replaced lots of "new" parts in my '66 in less than 25,000 miles. Don't get me wrong, I love it. I also work on it every weekend almost. Fortunately, I have other cars for everyday reliability. My $.02.
