Thought ya'll would enjoy this. Sad litle SC/360 in
a field.
I corresponded with you several months about my old SC 360. I made a
visit to my farm in Illinois and took a picture and came up with the following
information. It is a sure-nough SC360. But I knew that it was
because I bought it new. And I also had a 1968 AMX and a 1968
Javelin.

This little car was really a screamer. I had a little cam and carb
work done on it. I never met a 396 that it could not suck up the tail
pipe. It ran very well against the Chrysler big blocks and the
340's. It ever outran a 327-350 horser. No top end, tho.
Probably a good thing as it handled like a tractor.
My mother stuck the thing in a snowdrift while I was in the service and
blew the engine. They replaced it with a 304. It was never the same
again. I lost interest and it has just sat on the farm since it was last
driven in 1974. Some folks always suggest that I restore it, but I have restored
other cars and realize this one would take too much money for too little
return.
Anyway, add one more to your registry.
