Hey guys... it's been a while since I've been here but I've been busy keeping a roof over the family's heads and it's been a slow go on gathering parts for my next Roadster project.

I was going to run a 394 Olds but the engine was far from rebuilt and it wouldn't be cost effective.

So I'm open on the engine and trans combination... as I'm not to picky nas long as I can find traditional speed equipment to knock it out of the stock engine look.

Basically it's going to resemble the Roadster pictures above except I want to have a hood and motorcycle type fenders wide whites and shiny paint! Basically I want it to resemble the Ricky Nelson Roadster.

Small Block Chevy? Ford Y Block? Olds 324, 372?

What's your thoughts??

I'm a big fan of the early Olds. They look right in a hot rod and they are not used that often any more. There was a time when they were king.
