The 421 HO tripower is still a good engine.
Have pics of the car?

That car with a REAL 421 HO that is usable or rebuildable core is worth the 2800.00 asking price IMO. I am assuming the body and frame are not rusted through and not usable. Keep in mind these full size Pontiacs are very expensive to restore if that's your plan. Wonderful cars, but not like looking through a pile of catalogs for Chevy parts and being able to build the entire thing from a book of restoration parts. Ames Performance Engineering probably has the largest catalog of full size parts and the 1963 offerings are pretty thin. Especially one year parts. Best of luck if you purchase the car.

Noice!! A 421 HO motor would be worth $2800 to me.

Dealer Zone 12 is along the Mississippi River basin in Illinois and Missouri; Dealer # 335 falls somewhere between "Huber" (Springfield Illinois) and "Kempf" (Fayette MO).

Kinda cool that it references a Memo regarding that rear axle ratio.
