71 340. What's it worth?

[bluesuitah]

Came across a complete (minus the exhaust manifolds) 71 340 with J heads and 727. Has original manifold and carb. Not sure of mileage or whether it was running when pulled, although it appears to be in fairly good condition. For what that's worth. Any idea of a price range? Thanks in advance.

$600.00-$800.00 around here

Ok, I told the owner $600. Maybe I'm better at this than I thought.

That's a steal at $600 if it has not been over bored too much where it is no longer rebuildable. Good luck with it. Bill

600 is a steal if its good! around me closer to a grand is not uncommon.

 

[bluesuitah]

Internals are unknown. That's the gamble.

 

[bluesuitah]

We didn't make a deal, owner thinks it's worth $2000.

Yikes... probably not $2000 unless it's documented and pretty nice, fairly fresh, good running. Unless there's something really wrong, almost positively over $600 though, around here at least.

What's the casting date? What are the serial numbers stamped on the front of the motor under the head deck?

Could be casted in 71 buy used in a 72 model year car.

Yep that usually kills the deal.1400 dollars apart?might not be worth 2000 but 600?

2K better be a complete std bore runner in great shape.

The numbers off it may help others find a lost engine if they are possible to get.

Without the car it goes in, it's worth about the same as a 360.

I'll see if I can get the casting numbers.

For $2000, it better come with a "happy ending"....
