That's the problem with this hobby. Everybody is getting older, dying and selling off.

Lyall is still at it. He does a lot for Unique Motorcar's builds. Reach out to Maurice at 256-546-3708 if you need contact info for him/Southern Automotive.

So true, so true. The younger generation can't relate to the cars from our time period. If they want a high performance car they just go to the showroom. I'm just so glad I grew up in the eras (50s & 60s) that I did and learned to wrench and build our own High performance vehicles. I'm selling mine now as I'm too old and too fat to drive mine.

Not all of us. I'm still hoping to be able to buy one at some point - a 289 car. The pickings are slim and way out of my price range.

Lyall does a great job, built me a FE last year. Cold stars not a problem, runs and sounds awesome. If you have questions after the sale, he is quick to respond, that is always a good sign that you are working with reputable people.
