Late model Hurst/Olds cars are cool. They've got big wheelwells, so big wheels and tires will look right. No one expects them to be fast, so you have a sleeper element with the right engine. If the car is truly that clean, then you will not break the bank with body/paint/interior. Limit mods to suspension bolt-ons, wheels & tires, brakes, and drivetrain. Save all of the original goodies and if you seel the car, include both sets of parts.

I think you can make the Lightning Rods work if you don't mind losing the capability to pull down into 1st. Boy, I loved that Grand Sport, though.
