Warm enough for you Aaron? '72 servo/valve/line?

I'm trying to figure out how to get the filthy salt off of it from it's 2-3 hour drive home as it sits in my garage. The poor guy who sold it to me took the wrong turn and instead of coming to Newton Falls (45 minutes), drove practically to Cleveland and back on the turnpike...I asked him if it purred brrrr brrr'ed all the way
I know a guy in Cleveland that would have been happy to let it stay there!
Nice find!

The closest "garage find" that I can think of besides that one, was the one that Mike Immarino scored a few years ago for $2K. It even came with a spare bus for parts. I agree with you, "Keep that baby Stock". They are only Original once.
