    looks good to me
    it appears the tag they are showing should be 1971
    i wonder what kind of reserve they have..

    i emailed him and asked about the engine
    miles , hp , etc...

    here was his response

    not sure on miles, according to previous owner motor was built..i know the motor is very strong, as far as an accurate hp rating, i would be guessing... thanks Dallas

    That will be worth looking at for the price,it does looks very clean maybe an Electra donor?If the truck was there I would look at it too,get an idea of how far they went.It could also be a rering and valve job overhaul,for someone needing an engine and trans. combo it could be a deal.I hope someone here gets to look and listen to it.

    From the pictures the transmission appears to be a short shaft, not a long shaft big car unit.

    Ask him to give you the 2 letter code on the tag on the side of the trans. The will tell you if it was from a stage 1 donor.

    Gotta love a mystery package. Like being in Vegas. Is it a dupont rebuild or a real steal? "You payz you money andz ya takes youz chances."
