BEWARE of doing business with 340bird71

I think a Molotov cocktail on his favorite ride might be in order here.

Him, yes? The car, no. The car didn't do anything wrong. Had a friend who pissed off his girlfriend who responded by keying his '71 Road Runner. Pissed me off in turn. Not for his sake-he was an *** anyway-but the car didn't deserve it.

Am I the only guy that thinks the buyer actually got what he paid for? I mean that’s a lot of parts for $1200. Think about the cost of that stuff if sold separately. 340 block (~$500), J heads (~$200), steel crank (~$400), new pistons (~$400), plus everything else it came with. I think the sum of the parts was worth more than the purchase price.
Sure it’s a bummer that the seller advertised it as “freshly rebuilt”, but I believe the buyer just feels duped because it didn’t turn out to be the deal of the century. I know I’ve been in that boat before.
If it sounds too good to be true, it usually isn’t.
Sounds like a good start for a proper rebuild for a fair price.

Paid $1250 for a '70 340 that was disassembled for some 40 years and was happy to do it. It was in much worse shape than the one in question here is.
