Thank you very much. The one convertable is not an SD but he has put 454 in it. I think the rear end is 12 bolt with 333 gears... not sure whats the trany.
The other convertable that im thinking about has a 400 motor with a 400 trany.
Both cars are priced the same... 20 grand and they are both a long drive from where i live.
I will try to get pic's of the rags and where they are.
