Pretty funny and overpriced for a rusty rebuild of a short block that most people do not want or know what it is. Take a 1 off of the beginning and I would think about it.

Heads and other parts listed seperately...What a tool.

markeb01 · 07-05-2012, 01:08 AM

Wow I guess they've really appreciated over the last few years. I couldn't find any takers for my running engine for free. We had to take it apart just to get the weight down to manageable pieces so we could haul it to the dumps!

Bugs in cylinder bore boost horsepower by atleast 50, rusty deck surface also adds roughly 5 compression points, what a steal!

**70cst** · 07-05-2012, 01:58 AM

Well... Some people have no idea what a part is worth so they start high and work their way down. Maybe someone who desires to keep their truck stock would want this engine but I agree it's seems a bit over priced.
Ok.... Which one of you guys are going to buy it

Well let us all agree not to bid all at once

Another one from the school of Old+odd=worth alot of money!

Got several "collectors" around this area of the country that think "well it's old, so it's got to be worth alot". We can all thank the reality shows for this concept.

He didn't have rare on the description....haha. Seems to be a lot of rust in the cylinder walls and the head decks to have been rebuilt by a reputable shop. What you didnt see is that he listed the heads for another $1000.

jimmydean · 07-05-2012, 11:26 AM

Vintage.

Shooters_7 · 07-05-2012, 11:47 AM

boat anchor...... I'm sure several people have sent him emails referencing how much his engine isn't worth.

*HEI451* · 07-05-2012, 12:11 PM

I tried my best to get the auction to accept he pays me twenty bucks to haul it away for him, no dice.

Rich 5150 69 · 07-05-2012, 12:39 PM

There was one on CL a while back for $250 complete, he ran the ad for well over six weeks....then dropped to $150, still never sold.

Rich 5150 69 · 07-05-2012, 12:43 PM
