The price is a steal. Someone should grab this. if I had $7500 burning a hole in my wallet, I would be planning a trip to Stroudsburg to pick it up. Considering a salvage yard 3.2 will pull $5K this sounds like a no brainer.

I'm sure he has lots of interest (since it's posted on Pelican Parts too)...I've put my name on the list of those interested.
If I was lucky enough to get it, I'd jump in and go pick it up.

Still waiting on dyno results from Peter Dawe, but it looks like I bought myself an engine (and for those of you who didn't notice the yellow type, saying I got it for $5500 was a late April Fool's joke - although I believe I offered less than the engine is worth -- what I offered was FULL PRICE!

Probably pick it up on my SECOND trip to NY in mid-May, but haven't discussed with the seller yet (and haven't finalized the deal until I see dyno numbers).

It'd probably be cheaper to drive up and pick it up...not sure what freight on an engine costs these days though.

There were half a dozen people in line, likely ahead of me. My guess is they were offering $6800 for an engine Peter Dawe had assured me was worth every penny of $7500, and that the prior owner was the one who had put the money into the rebuild (and was a personal friend of Peter's), so Caesar wasn't the one out the rebuild money. He backdated the car to a '74 RSR and is putting a 3.6 in in now - sound familiar, Scott?
