'70 raiv gto

[mockingbird812]

Confused! So as I recall Scott (bulletproof) had a replacement block in his car. Is this Scott's old car? Am I wrong about original block. Is the ebay link in previous link a different car because they say w/o a doubt it has the original block?

Confusing as they're amazingly similar but two totally different cars!
Info indicates;
- Scott Bulletpruf's car w/ Bench + RWL Tires + NOM also Original Engine known but not w/ car.
- Ebay car w/ Buckets + WW Tires also reported original engine but unconfirmed - VIN 242370P187369

Scott's old car has a replacement block built to Pure Stock Drags level, which was the goal before the concourse resto bug bit. As I recall, he found the original block which had long been installed in another 70 RAIV GTO (Judge I think?) but couldn't convince that owner to sell or swap.

That's the truth - name/number of block owner travels with the car.

Member Baron Von Zeppelin sent me this info to post.....
Just wanted to pass along some overlooked info dividing Scott/B-pruf old car and the other Green 70 IV 4spd.

Scotts was
Dk Grn
Blk Buckets / Blk Interior
Console
4.33
4spd
No PS
Manual Drums
Poverty Caps with WhiteWall G70

Deleted some minor accessory options
Deleted Console , Radio , 8 Track
Went with 3.90 gears
Changed to Bench Seat - added RWL Tires

The other car has Green Interior
easiest thing to point out on them now.

This '70 RAIV car has been relisted for a few grand shy of $140k, in the link below.

A good friend of mine has the actual REAL numbers block for this car in his Red 70 RAIV. Both cars were ordered at the same time and are only 400 vin's away. My friend has had his since 71 at which time his original motor was already gone. He bought the green cars block for $400 way back when off another friend.

Wow, would he seller to the owner of green car?

I'll ask but the engine is in the car now. I would probably have to find him a better replacement and other than his original block, I don't know if you can get any better than a block 400 vin's away ordered from the same dealership, Wells Pontiac. The bench seat car, not the car in the last ad posted.
