The 69 400 engine could be had for $500 without the transmission.
STORY ON THE ENGINE GOES LIKE THIS: It ran 12 years ago when the guy bought a 68 firebird with this engine in it. The guy he bought it from had started building the Firebird back in the 80's but never got it on the road. The current owner ran it for just a few minutes just to make sure it ran and said it sounded ok even though it was loud with no exhaust. Thinks it's from a B body car originally. Current owner never finished the car and then junked the car and moved the 400 into his garage for the past 4 yrs. Now he needs the space and wants to sell.
I wish it wasn't 4 1/2 hrs away....
