And man, is it slow! There's a 59 for sale locally, nice car, rotisserie job but driver quality. My 180lb self combined with the owner at 240lbs had a heck of a time getting up some 8% hills. I guess my 1275 car must have been modified a bit to be so much faster and snappier than this car. Whatever car I end up with, it will have a 1275 or 1380. Which bring me to the question, is anything compatible between the two motors? Or will I have to buy literally everything to do the swap? On a good note, it had an amazing shifting smooth case, clean body, floor pans were replaced properly, and decent driver paint. It does need a bunch of little things sorted, like the correct wiper motor, horn button on the dash properly wired, needs correct gauges, has alternator conversion so the tach doesn't work, etc. But if I can get it for the right price, I'll have stuff to tinker with to keep me busy.
