I would be very wary of this seller, considering some of the crap they have on Ebay. But, this seems like the exception - a halfway decent looking starter car, although I think it's priced a few grand too high.

Thought about this one long and hard... My concern is the engine pad surface. Appears to have been decked or honed?

It appears that it has small block engine mount brackets on the frame.

The cooling fan is not the correct "W" unit fixed blade fan. But I guess you cannot argue with build sheet documents.

That's my old car. Sold it about 1 1/2 yrs ago. It is a real deal, I pulled the docs out of the back seats 15 yrs ago.

Is that the correct BBC crossmember? Doesn't appear to be off-set to the right. TAZ

I bought the block off e-bay. That's the way I got it. I think it is 30 over, it is balanced, all
new parts. We broke the motor in on a stand, it ran very well.
