I have a 1973 455 completely rebuilt with 2000 miles on it. The car it was in rusted away so it got pulled out. It was pulled out with the wiring harness still attached, and the belts and hoses. If you are slightly interested I can send pictures and rebuild info. I would like $4000.

[GruntedCatalina]

Thank you GTOguys. I will definitely keep that in mind as it is still a bit early; want to see what other may have as well.

I have a running 1971-1972 455, was rebuilt 42,000 miles ago. I have the receipt but no extent of rebuild. Carb to pan, all brackets, pulleys including AC components. $1500 in Salina, KS.

What sort of engine? Street, race , daily driver?

[GruntedCatalina]

Looking mostly for a Daily driver that I can rebuild for power but, if the price is right!

there is one in a 75 Grandville convertible in a local junkyard near me. No idea on condition. Middle VA

ive got some but they are in oklahoma

[GruntedCatalina]

Hey Blu, did you by chance see the vehicle in person? Would it even be worth it?

Muscle, Ill go anywhere if the deal is right! or ship it. lol

[blubomber]

yes. I've seen the car and motor. It's all there. has the carb and air cleaner still on it so it's been protected from the weather. Hood still with car as well. Car has likely been in the yard for at least 15 years. By condition I mean I don't know if the motor is seized, cracked, or what?

[muscle_collector]

if you cant find one close let me know. I have a friend that a lot of guys on here know very well that usually makes a good deal hauling stuff as long as you can work with him picking it up when he is coming thru this way and delivering it when he is in your area.

[GruntedCatalina]

Blu, Muscle Collector. I will keep both of these in mind! gonna keep sharp for a little bit longer to see what else can be gathered. Since the winters still new in the tristate

If you are looking to buy a 455 motor from somewhere in the U.S. he can help with the transport.I have a 72 455 complete from carb to pan including all the brackets and some of the A/C stuff. Motor is all together. It was pullrd as a running motor 10 years ago from a G.P. Let me know if you are interested.
