Ha ha ha ha! There has never been a truer headline on the internet! This is awesome! Here's a pic of me with my '78. It had a 350, and ran like a top, but rust eventually killed it. Someday, I'll have another one, with LS power!

I would LOVE to find a nice rust-free XJ6C and drop an LS3 into it. Talk about a sleeper....
