How much will it go for?
 

Going to local auction Saturday morning. Among the items listed are Flowmaster 40's, big block headers, Edelbrock carb, Muncie 4spd w/new flywheel & scattershield, 454 bored 60 over w/Crane cam, engine stands, and some other GM parts. Also a like new Kwik Lift portable car lift. May have to dip into the savings account if the prices are right. Am going to see if I can get some more info on the engine and tranny.

what kinda auction you going to ?? :confused: all of them around here are mostly junk stuff

The home owner and his wife are getting divorced and he is selling off a bunch of stuff; guns tools, 2 cars, etc. There's a 64 Ford Falcon Futura body in this auction that I think the 454 was going in.

:hmm: that would be my kinda auction :metal: guns :metal: chevy stuff :metal: :metal:
one thing i learned about auctions a long time ago was to take a lot of money with ya if theres sumthing you want there ,their will be others with the same ideal of getting it cheap

You're right about that. I've seen stuff go for more than I could buy it new. Some people go crazy at auctions. I'm just trying to figure out what the 454 is worth.

Update
 

Went to auction this morning. 454 BBC w/ Crane cam and no dizzy or carb $1260. New in box Edelbrock 1407 $185. (I was in porta potty when this sold :( ). Muncie M20 w/ new flywheel, scattershield, clutch and Hurst shifter $625.

TNblazer is right--why are all the auctions and flea markets in the south just plain junk? and I mean JUNK! Worn out women's dresses, kids clothes, etc is all that is ever sold in these here in the south. Whenever I want to go to a decent sale, I go to In., Ohio or Pa. where there's all kind of good automotive and tool stuff. I moved to the south 32 years ago and I still don't understand it. :confused:
