I would've done that for $50.00.

Complete engine alone is worth the $5500, guy also said he recently sold a 70 BB Nova for around the same price, shoot me.

Let me know when your finished beating yourselves up over this car and I'll tell you why after three 20-30 min. phone conversations with the owner I passed.
JrSully- Does it make sense to you that this guy recently sold his '70 on Ebay,and then turns around and give's the '69 away for half of what it's worth?

Nope, what's the scoop? Is this the guy with the junkyard full of stuff? Was this car gold and had a fire in it at one time?

Marlin, not the car you are talking about, Astock, in my "brief" conversaton with this guy, he stated that the drivetrain was matching #'s, in the event it was, a complete L78 engine (block, 840 heads, 163 manifold, pulleys etc) M21 muncie and 12 bolt is easily worth $5500.00 all day long, thats my point.Having the original/restorable body that it all came in, thats gravy.

The Gold car is an October 1969 built 70. m

Ooops! Wrong car

So, what's the story on why this one went so cheap? Sounds like a good deal like Sully says, so, I wonder what was wrong with it?

**lowmile** · #10 02-03-2005, 08:06 PM

The engine comparts must not match or they're junk. So what is the rest of the story Astock??? m
