    I've got 70 and 72 heads for sale. They have been sitting for 15 years. The 70 heads I just pulled off a 455 block that I am rebuilding but I do not need the heads.

    I have 2 sets of 455 heads, one set is 1970, the other 1973. I got them with the car in 1999. Probably haven't been on a car in 30+ years. Nobody wants them as far as I can tell.

    That Craigslist ad looks like Bruno's general area.:D

    Where are you located Jeremy?

    I'm close to green bay Wisconsin. Head number 1231786

    The guy told me the other heads were 72, but the part number is 1237661 so those might be 71

    These came with the motor I bought so I am unsure about their "running" conditions.

    Will sell pretty cheap. $100 a set

    Really?
    So you contacted me. I asked for a price and photos and you disappeared a couple months ago.
    Remember?
    So those are them in the ad. No thanks

    Not paying for shipping, probably something ridiculous lol.

    No, I never put any ad up. I private messaged you because I saw you were looking for 1970 heads and you never responded to the PM. I can still see it in my inbox. Disappeared? I'm on here all the time, I'm a moderator, I'm not hard to find. Here's a screen shot of the PM I sent you,

    In any case, someone here saw that I had the heads and PM'd me yesterday. They are sold. I still have a set of 73 heads.

    There was no response to the PM in my inbox. I just looked at it again, there is nothing there, no response. Have a look,

    Maybe you messaged me, but it didn't register on my end. If you did message me back, that reply should still be in your inbox. Please stop telling me I disappeared. I'm on V8 everyday. I'm subscribed to this thread. I get alerts when someone posts on a thread I have posted on. I get alerts when someone PM's me or replies to a PM I initiated. I'm easy to get in touch with. My e mail is in my signature. All the Buick guys on Long Island know me, have my cell #, and see me most cruise nights across Long Island. How is it I have never seen you or your car at any cruise night or Buick show?

    The 70 heads I had are good heads. I would have practically given them to you. The guy that bought them got a great deal. He PM'd me last night, and I replied.

    So you sent me a message. Someone saw it and bought the heads?
    That’s pretty slick. so people check each other’s messages?

    And I did message back.
    Things disappear like threads here.
    No biggie. My car runs pretty good for what it is.

    OK, I did a little research, and I see what happened. I saw that you wanted 70 heads in this thread,

    https://v8buick.com/index.php?threads/1969-400-455-cylinder-heads.370399/#post-3223563

    I then PM'd you on August 20th, but instead of responding to the PM, you responded on the thread (8/21), a thread I never posted on, hence, I never got an alert to check the thread. I never saw that post. I PM'd you so that it would just be between you and I. I figured you weren't interested when I didn't hear back on the PM.



    Then in post #2 of this thread,

    https://v8buick.com/index.php?threads/70-heads-on-craigslist.371682/#post-3238136

    I saw you were still interested in 70 heads, and posted in post #5. Then in post #7, and then you responded in post #10 stating that you contacted me. I saw all the posts in this thread because I was subscribed to it, and got an alert, so I went and looked in on the thread. I was not subscribed to Blk69GS' thread because I never posted on it. I never saw your response. If you had just responded to the PM I sent you, you would have had those heads for a song and a dance.

    Meanwhile, another member on V8 saw my post about the heads I had, and PM'd me. I responded to his PM on October 12th, and sold the heads to him. That was nearly 2 months after I PM'd you.

    At no time were my heads ever on a Craigslist ad, or an ad on V8. I offered them to you alone via the August 20th PM.

    I was trying to help you, that's all. The V8 member that bought my heads had no knowledge of any of this, he simply saw my post in the thread in October and PM'd me.

    Do you understand what happened?

    Well thanks for squaring that up. I did not know.
    Surprised you never checked back on that thread. You keep a good eye on here.
    It’s all good. I hope the guy gets good use out of em.
    Ain’t the first set I missed. It all works out in the end.
    I thought I messaged you and I apologize.

    No worries. Normally, I keep track of all the threads I actually post in. The only involvement I had with that thread was taking the pictures of Bruno's heads with my i phone, and e mailing them to him so he could post them. Other than that, the thread held no interest to me, and I didn't post in it.

    The heads I have are sold to member Pilgrim. I will either run them up to John Csordas next trip I make up there, or he will come down and pick them up. If he changes his mind, I will keep you in mind.
