440 fresh overhaul. $2000.00 Should I buy 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.

I just looked at the surroundings and thought "there's no way this thing has had anything but a paint done to it."
