Mine was a 57 Chevy,2 door sedan, with a 283,3speed on the floor, when I was 15.I paid $100.00 down and owed $100.00 more.
Drove it 25 miles home and it started popping and jerking and dying.
I was working at a Gulf station and my boss checked it and it had a cracked block.
My boss got me another 283 from Spicer and Gaylords(junkyard) and told me I had to do it myself.Started Fri. night and got done Sun. afternoon.
Me and a friend took off and drove 50 miles round trip and burned 5 quarts of oil.
We had all the windows open and it looked like the car was on fire.
My boss got me another engine and that one was good.
