That is one very cool car!! I would have expected a higher "Buy-It Now" price with that rare engine and the Super Duty parts that are included.

thanks for the link.Just need to move on,had a SD 4 speed auto transaxle for it and found out it could not be driven on the street so sold it now have to sell the rest of the package.If no action will pull the alu engine and put back on with the 326 engine.Tom

Man I would have died for that transaxle setup for my 63' Gasser..What did that bring?

Re: 1963 tempest wagon 389 ALU SD engine
 

the ring and pinion were only good for 10 runs and the lowest gear avail was a 3.90.Nice plan but no good for the applicaion.I paid 15K for it!Found out it was a spool and not really driveable and the R&D to fab a diff. for it was just more than I wanted to get into.Not for the faint of heart!Tom

The Buy It Now is a good price for the engine alone.
