440 fresh overhaul. $2000.00 Should I buy it?

Unless they can prove to you what all has been done, plus you can't even hear it run right now. I personally wouldn't give that price for it.
I don't know, man. There are some clues that suggest the kind of work he did. The dented oil filter, spark plug painted orange, spark plug wire with the end missing. O.k. so maybe it hasn't been run, yet. But, I'm sure the chain is attached so he can put it on a test cell or dyno. :poke: Maybe it's a typo and he meant to say $200.00 because that's all that engine is. A core that needs rebuilding.

P.S. This is going in my file: Craigslist Crackheads.
