Re: 427 Caprice lead now w/ pics!
After going down and looking at the engine for Rick it is really up in the air what this engine might be truely worth. The owner and I knocked the oil pan off to see inside and we both got shocked. Prior owner has taken rods, pistons, oil pump and main bearings out of it! Crank may be shot. Hard to tell about block since there was no coating done on the walls. Cylinder heads aren't original to the engine as the paint colors/patina is way off. Trans is correct though and rear is a FX 2.56 posi. Owner is now uncertain what he wants to do. Thinks maybe send it down to Coursons in Emlenton to have him check it over to see what's salvageable.
Rick, it was great talking to you and am happy to have looked this over for you.
