What would you pay for a '72 ??

Just needs engine. The guy who rebuilt it screwed up and used the wrong pistons. It's going to have to come out and apart. Don't know what other details I can give.
Ummm...the rest of the car beyond the engine?

What was the car originally? What trim options? What is the current condition of the body (inside and out)? What is the interior condition? What are the tires and wheels like?

You should know and understand these kinds of details if you expect to place a value on the car...or ask others to.
