Sometime I wonder about this ebay thing

I like how he thinks the 4 bolt block refers to how many bolts hold it to the car, and that it somehow makes "unreal horsepower". Probably in the neighborhood of 125-175 for that era I'd guess. I was going to tell him but I can't figure out if he's serious or just not very bright.

Sadly enough I think he's both, he's serious and not very bright.

I believe it would take more than a little bondo to fix that dent.

He is SERIOUSLY NOT BRIGHT!! Well, we can't all be car geniouses. The 3-4 bolt thing is just someone talking without knowing, oh well, you could ask him a question, or just let it slide. I'd let it slide cause these are the guys that know lots about nothing and will argue with you!!

To make it interesting - I have seen worse. It was a Corvette ad. I'll link it up in a sec, but I wanted everyone to understand that even though Corvettes are getting expensive, this one is worth about 1/20th the asking price. The ad is generally hilarious.

Poor fella, at least he was enthusiastic about the whole deal. The bondo recommendation killed me!

Now if that Vette had the Beta tape player then I might make an offer. :crazy:

Never seen a 3 bolt. Is that where the 3rd bolt goes through the middle of the crank. Come on get real!

It does have rusty spots, but 1974 you gotta expect that.

Ahh I love it - i'd give him $100 for it for parts (but only if it ran)


Someone should ask him to pull the oil pan and snap a picture to prove that it is a 4 bolt main - wait that might be too confusing for him.

i get dibs on the dash

Re: Sometime I wonder about this ebay thing
 
It has 4 bolt motor mounts to help keep the jarring down thats what makes the unreal power. you know the junk motors only have 3 bolts to hold them down.

Poor guy probably rides a bicycle and his mom hid the keys when he put that little indentation in the cab and was yealling words he had never heard before. Makes me want to bid high for all the effort he put into trying to sweeten that POS. It looks like he has a pill of money in rattle cans of paint and armaroll.

Hey after a little bondo in that small indentation, take err down to Macco for some paint and you got a show winner.

I always wondered why my 2 bolt blocks wouldn't perform ... they were missing that extra bolt going through the bearings...:lol:
