That'd be them, Michael.

I'm always suspicious of guys who say a car "drives out" good. I want
'em to drive back, too.

That 350 install sure looks crappy. Wiring is a mess, and they even
left the EGR valve on it! If the car really had only 77,000 miles, the
original 289 would have been in better shape than a rebuilt 350.

With the off-brand engine, the quoted value in the old car price guide
is irrelevant, and the engine swap is barely up to rat rod standards,
if appearances can be a guide.

If the car is in Red Deer, I'd be willing to go look at it (could use
a good laugh), but I'm at work, and will be here for about a week.

I am pretty sure these are the guys that sold a car  that had touched
up photos etc.
