Probably wasn't that bad. Never measured one but I hear the 460 is not as wide as the DOHC they 'stuffed' in the Mark VIII. I *know* that fit is tight... my knuckles have the scars to prove it.

If anyone is really interested in this one let me know and I'll go get you some more pictures and a report. It's local for me.

I was thinking the transmission.  Getting it to mount to a 460 is the easy part.  I'd love to see the tunnel and the mount points.

Kinda hard to tell from the small pics (Ughh @ craigslist for that)
but are those steel wheels? :hick:

Would be cool to see what the engine looks like...well, the part that you CAN'T see above the hood! :rollin:

There is just no making those cars look good.

I disagree. They can be made to look good, this guy obviously just didn't do it. He uglified it. The cowl hood is atrocious. The tuner wing is stupid. The motor may be worth it, but I would definitly ditch the body. Paint is ugly as  too.
