Hi Don!
               A friend of mine was at the Shakopee Minnesota car show and
took a picture of a Blue  '69 Camaro with a 440 , so it looks like somebody
beat ya to it.
The '58 Plymouth  with  the GM yeech mill under the hood would annoy me  as
well and regrettably a short while ago a White '62 Dodge showed up on Ebay
with the engine compartment full of  GM ,it was sad and needed to be saved.
In fact there was some discussion about it amongst some in the clubhouse.
A while ago I thought I'd shift gears and I joined a street rod
organization,( why I don't know but I'm better now) I  hung around for about
a year (they weren't a bad bunch ) but after a while I mentioned that with
all their emphasis on individuality a prominent trend tended to present
iself , and I took no time in pointing it out after I attended one of the
"Rod Runs" , and that was excessive use of the thirties Ford body shell in
some form and the omnipresent 350/350 combination with a Holley  Double
dumper on top and Moroso this and Moroso all over it ,in short I just didn't
fit in with the mind set and still don't so I soon departed . My 41 Dodge
that I was going to Rod is now in my Daughters hands
and will remain bone stock.
The small block chevy thing is quite the phenomenon, but it stands to reason
when parts for these things hang off every street corner and they're cheap
which is probably whats at the bottom of the whole thing.
However I feel  your pain!!!!

63 Dodge

I have decided I need to revenge us. I was looking through a Auto trader
type book a friend lent me at the car show today and I almost popped my
gaskets.
First there was the usual "34 plymouth  2 dr sedan 350 with 400 turbo , 40
Dodge coupe 350/400 turbo, 39 Ply coupe set up for BBC" Then I came across
one that blew my mind , "58 Plymouth wagon. 350 Chevy with 350 turbo"
That did it. I am now on the hunt for a Corvair, a Corvette and a 67 Camaro
SS.
I can see the ads now
"65 Corvair Spyder. Volkswagen engine. twin carbs. imaculate throughout."
"67 Corvette Split window coupe . Car is immaculate.
8 3/4 rear end with 4:56 gears. 426 hemi with torqflite"
and the final insult will do me proud.
"Original one owner 67 Camaro SS four speed. 302 Ford with C4  and 9 Inch
rear end"
It reminded me of once at Cayuga Raceway a fellow was ahead of me in the
staging lanes had a 69 Dart powered by a 427 Chev. His license plate read
"Mothers Polish" I pointed to it and said to him "Obviously" My apologies to
all who may be offended . I realize it was not my shining moment and i was
sorry right after I said it but it sure does tick me off when i see one of
our beautiful Mopars with one of those weird motors in it.
I sure hope there aren't (but i know there probably is) one of our 62 to 65
Mopars with one of these rodents under the hood!
