Non-original block apparently, its a CE - stamped CE A131309 ? Can anyone decipher?

When the Flint engine plant went through the whole series of replacement V8 engine block serial numbers,in this case starting with &amp; including #20000 all the way up to &amp; including #49999,they reused them again only this time by prefixing them with the letter <span style="font-weight: bold">A</span> to designate that.

<span style="text-decoration: underline">Breaks down as follows:</span>
<span style="font-weight: bold">CE</span>=Chevrolet Engine.
<span style="font-weight: bold">A</span>=Revisited/reused LATE production serial number.
<span style="font-weight: bold">1</span>=last digit for model year it was issued..1971.
<span style="font-weight: bold">31309</span>=service engine blocks actual serial #.

That's weird, like looking at a mirror of yourself in a mirror of yourself.

Given that the car was sold new in northern IL and is now for sale in northern IL, one could reasonably assume it's been in northern IL much, if not all, of its life. Judging by the appearance of the subframe and undercarriage, I seriously doubt that car traveled 104K miles on northern IL roads [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/no.gif[/img]

Will definitely be interesting to see where this goes, moneywise [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/naughty.gif[/img]
