    The reason the cutouts were open was so you couldn't hear the knock

    Being in Western NY, $7500  that would be a good deal w/o a drive line, let alone set up for a big block. Given the plethora of quality of speed parts, I think you did alright.

    Eric O at South Main Auto always says, "Not all cars at the auction are junk, but all junk cars are at the auction." That being said, I think this one is a still a great, fixable, car. Someone definitely knew it had problems and just took it to the auction to get rid of it. We all make mistakes. At least this one has a spectacular base and not all rusted out.

    In the upper Midwest, that&apos;s a $15k car all day, even with the issues.

    7,400 bucks is a steal man. Such a rad color with the brown inside. They don’t make em this cool anymore

    7500 for that? Even with a bad engine that’s good price in my mind. &nbsp;There are a ton of good parts in the engine still. &nbsp;Find another bottom end or rebuild that one. You’ll make back your money in YouTube money making videos about it.

    This is the nicest car you have done in a long time. Even if the engine is junk, I am sure you fix that since the car is so nice. I don&apos;t think it was a bad purchase.
