how did you figure out what to do with your car?

[Ms Grumpy]

First off let me say, good job. You looked at what you wanted to do with the car and what made the most sense for you to do. I like the fact that you are going to "learn" with the 454, especially since it is something you already have. Do we have suggestions, sure everyone has an opinion but it looks like you have done some homework on where you want to start. And posting what you need may give you some leads here as to where you are going to find the best deal. Continued luck on this journey, we will be there with you the whole way.
