Craigslist 71, not mine

Not sure if it's lwb or swb, it appears to have at least one front fender, a core support, hood, and bare looking doors. No mention of a title, but anyone can send him an e-mail. Looks like an aborted project, who knows what parts he has. No, I'm not buying it I'm up to my neck in projects already.

Re: Craigslist 71, not mine

I suppose its a fair deal if you factor the 427 Tall Deck into it. Still for $2800 I like it if they run. If you had a shot cab, but a barnfull of doghouse tin, it would be perfect. At least its less than 2 hours away.
No new projects for me either, I got 2 that run good and 2 "future projects'' already, I'm at full capacity.
Might be perfect for somebody.

I like the 427, but I'm not a fan of motors that have been bored out that much.

No problem boring a big block that much they normally can go .125 before any worries. Not that I would go that far but there is plenty of wall there to do that. Jim

Re: Craigslist 71, not mine

Yeah, call me weird but I like blocks that have only gone out as far as 0.030 over at most. I like knowing for a certainty that I have room to clean up the cylinders for future rebuilds. I have seen some motors that can't handle .060 and future cleanups.
