How far are you from StLouis?
$100 how can you go wrong? Make an offer guys, I need to free up some space.
I usually make the trip every other weekend, I'm sure we can work something out. My brother bought the engine from the guy that pulled it from the car, it sat inside in his storage unit for two or three years. To my knowledge it hasn't seen the weather. I will talk to my brother this weekend and try to get more details.
Out of a 69 Coronet, ran good when pulled, complete. $125 no shipping, located in Annawan, Il.
Talked with my brother and heres the story. A friend of his had bought the car to salvage some body parts off of. My brother was there when they set in a battery and fired it up, said it started and idled well, no crazy smoking or anything. He agreed to buy the engine at that point...got it pulled and sat in his storage unit for 1 1/2 to 2 years, (not 2 or 3 years like I thought). I can't say what the history of the car was before all this, and I guess all I can guarantee right now is that it's not locked up. My brother was satisfied enough that he was going to set it in and use it, then his plans changed. Again, for this price, kinda tough to go wrong.
I am looking for a B block aluminum 4 barrel intake...may consider a trade.
Even if you had to pay $100 for shipping, this is still a good deal.
Fishy, the next chance for me at Peoria will be Friday the 14th or Sunday the 15th.
Meanwhile, if someone shows up with cash...they win. Certainly not looking to upset anyone, but the goal is to sell this thing and it's priced accordingly. (It's listed on B bodys and Craigslist as well).
Ok. I can make it up the 14th but not the 15th so if you don't sell it locally before that and can make it on the 14th consider it sold to me. Oh yeah, if this does work for us to meet the 14th how would we transfer it from your truck to mine? I've had 2 back surgeries in the last year so I can't do much heavy lifting. About 100 lbs. is it for me. Thanks for giving me 1st dibbs and I understand that if you get the chance to sell it locally you gotta go that route.
Thanks for understanding my situation. If its not gone by then it is yours. I'll let you know either way as time gets closer so you aren't left out of the loop. I can bring my cherry picker if need be to make the transfer. By the way, I had a typo earlier...I'll make the trip on Friday the 14th and Sunday the 16th, if that matters.
