Welcome and glad to see another Minnesotan here.
There are a few of us here now and again, myself, Bungy,
348nut, Mr. Jimmy, and probably a few more, but that was all I could remember at the moment.

I have owned the car since march of 1975 and bought it for $200 it came from california and he got it at an action for 15 bucks the oringinal motor went in the trash due to racing explosions but in '75 I had chevy trace the #'s and the guy said get the car it's a real 09
and both the block and car matched. Boy the dumb things we did when we are young
glad to be here.

Thanks, I wanted to put that on my licence plate but mn. says no slash so I will get a custom one made since we don't need a front plate anymore on collector cars. There is no motor ever built that has the eye appeal of a W-motor :cool:

Good looking 63.
I like the looks of the biscayne. nice and smooth no trim to interfear with clean body lines. I also like the 409 with the finned valve covers.
:clap :clap :clap

Thanks for all the nice complements and the car is silver [was originally dark blue
with a fawn interior] and yes those are edelbrock valve covers my most favorite 409 part. My son gets the car when he turns 21 [14 now] he just loves the car
and then I will build a willys with a 409 becouse I have one left 340hp.
This is a great site :) 409s forever
