462 engine rebuild

i am trying to find out what a complete engine rebuild for my 462 ( 1966 ) should cost. I possible could you break it down into parts and labor. !st quote was $4500. Second quote was $3850. In both of these parts were about $1200. Original quote without teardown was about $3000.

Re: Mirror markings

Years ago Auto insurance companies used to offer free etching on windows and other parts, to cut down on theft. If it looks like it was done by hand this could be it. It might be a license # or some other personalized number. Are any of your windows etched?

what is acceptable chrome plating?

I had some chrome plating done. Got home and checked it over. What is acceptable? Should I expect a pit or pock on a piece or should I expect perfection? Where parts go into one another the inside of the piece is crusty and rough. I feel that it will probably scratch the other chrome eventually. The...

Re: Suggestions and topics for the 2008 National Board Meeting

Another suggestion,
I would like to see each region have a handbook with all minutes and other National club info available to them. This should be handed down and kept up from director to director.

Re: Suggestions and topics for the 2008 National Board Meeting

A Chapter is a subset of a Region and could be "sponsored" by a region. It would not have to be turned into a Region unless they want to be. I would love to have someone form a Chapter on the west side or the northern part of Michigan. I would support them as much as possible and give our ...
