I was surprised also that it was so quiet.  I thought i have a notification set up with BAT for 64 Fairlanes, but that is not how i found out about the auction.  also note the engine is a tunnel port

Interesting, I sold the tunnel port from my super-gas car and shipped it to Florida the same year that one was built. The guy that purchased it was putting it in a Thunderbolt clone and wanted the car street legal. My engine was also 13.5-1 compression 8v intake BBC rods, comp cam at the time. Some of the descriptions are different but parts can change over the years.
