If you ever decide to sell it...........

====================================
I doubt I'll sell it, but I may need a hand putting it in good shape.

BTW: How much does a Buick 425, 2X4 intake, carbs, linkage, and Air Cleaner Go for?

I saw one on ebay currently, but it is REALLY expensive. Any idea of the price on a set up like this?

I've been emailing with the guy about buying it as a package deal, I just don't know what to offer.

I figure I could always build another 425 to drive around in and save the numbers matching engine for safe keeping.

Thanks,

Ty

I saw a restored one sell for $2300 with no air cleaner. I saw a ROUGH one sell for $1500 and no air cleaner. I saw a good air cleaner bring $400, I saw a killer one birng $1000. Very expensive car to build, $10,000 chrome project.

Now back to the Vette, LOL!

Killer Vette Rick, love the story. Glad you ditched that old front end and put on that 67 front end. Looks much better.
