I am starting to look at the costs involved to have the car repainted with the correct color stripes (black) and the installation of the black vinyl roof. The vinyl roof not installed when repainted before I bought the car 8 years ago.

Long story short, about 6-7 years ago I had oil pressure problems. Enging was rebuilt by a local shop. Less than 500 miles later I had oil pressure problems again. This time the local shop had a McHenry county hi-po engine builder go through the motor and rebuild the motor. Keep in mind
I was a newbie to this hobby, and didn't know the people I now know, or knew about web sites like this.

Who in the Chicago area can I trust to properly rebuild my 302? It may need sleeves, as it is now .60 over. It still has the original crank, but has oversized bearings.

Thoughts, comments and advise would be greatly welcomed!
