Door handle and Heat should be cheap and easy to come by. I love to get another thirdgen. I'd get another bird and LSX it.
I plan to, but I doubt this is a normal 700R4. Or it could be and the Rocket 350 is a late 70s thin-cast block.

Which means the motor could grenade before the trans.

EDIT: I also don't know what's more awkward.. getting a 3rd gen as a winter driver, or finding out that the Monte in current running condition is worth around 2K.

Thank you CFC?
