Colorado COPO

[the427king]

Bob you have the buildsheet . You also have a picture of the original motor and vin. Why buy it for anything more than what its worth to anyone else. ? If you had no paperwork and no picture of the motor you would probably then pay a bunch for it. If i had someones buildsheet I wouldnt send them a copy, because theres no need for them to buy it .....Ill buy your car for market price..send me a CE motor with it and im good ...

I would have told him, fine I'll sell you the car...






For $200,000, with the original engine it should be worth $250... right ?

Same here... I'd offer him the car for an insane price.

I would leave it alone for now, at least you know where the engine is.

Lets focus on the positive, congrats on finding this car, what's the back story?

That’s what we all want to say but saying that prob doesn’t help reunite the engine with that car

If the engine owner was willing to pay an exorbitant price to obtain the car, why not sell it to him. Thinking he will ever release the engine anything close to a reasonable price is probably a fair tale. Maybe his heirs will be sensible, but will any of us still be around for that ?
