Mr. Veteran Racer (VR) lives down the street from NB. NB hears VR's Stocker running all the time and loves the sound of it. He stops by VR's place one day, and strikes up a conversation. He tells VR he'd like to build a Stocker too, and would VR help steer him in the right direction, VR says...
Not to ruin your story line and I hope that you continue with it but this IS a fictional story, am I correct? After all, this IS 2023 not 1973. I see it going one of three ways...

1. sure kid, here's my engine builders number, my trans builders number and my chassis shops number. Be ready to give them a big down payment and wait a year or two.

2. sure kid, but you can't be competitive in a "slow" car. Sell that ugly old POS to a collector or a street-rodder and get a big-block 60s-70s musclecar. See 1.

3. get off my lawn or I'll call a cop!
