Looking forward to seeing the build progress. Brent does excellent work. Is it a 5 but or 6 bolt block? I know that 1965 was the year that the 289's transitioned from 5 bolt to 6 bolt for the bell housing.

I can always post a video of Ellie and me treating the leather seats. That'll fix their wagon.
