Just rescued a reproduction from a field has not ran for approximately 10+ years. Some one said it is a La Exotica kit wanted to know where to get parts and steps to get her back on the road.

Post some pictures so we can see this car and identify it. Take a shot with the hood open.

Someone told me it is a LA Exotic replica kit. Can't locate any numbers on the body or frame need help finding where they are located if this is the right kit. Car hasn't ran for probably 10 years. Change the oil and filter cleaned out fuel cell and coolant bought battery and installed car turned over. I think the engine is a Ford 460 big block I found the stamped 460 on the block my intake manifold is an Edelbrock Performer 460 is there a difference between 429 and 460 the heads are stamped D0VE does this mean that it is a 1970 engine. The transmission numbers are 55 S is that the same as a 5R55S transmission. I have uploaded some pictures on my profile. Thanks for any help you can give.
