eBay '66 L78 El'Camino

[Bill Rose]

I don't think Mike Crown came on too strong at all. When I originally read the ad, I certainly thought the seller was saying it's a matching number motor, meaning, original motor. With the lengthly description of the car, all it would take is one short line saying non original engine. The ad could have been edited as well, and never was. I can only think of one reason to re-stamp a block, and thats to pass the car off as an original motor car. Otherwise, after the block was decked, it would have been left blank.
Even if the seller isn't trying to be deceptive, how about the next time the car is sold, and the time after that. Man you really have to be careful these days.
