    Hey all you central Indiana vintage Corvette freaks!

    I'm on the south-side of Indy, and what I have here is, in fact, the original 327 out of the 1965 Corvette which my uncle owned(and totaled many moons ago.)

    It sat in my old man's garage for decades, and has sat in mine for probably 8 years...

    5101097 F08I5HI...stamped on front pad of the driver's side of block where head mates up.

    3782870...cast into the driver's side rear of block where bell housing would bolt up.

    The cam, timing set, and the 2680 small journal steel crank shaft are still in the block and still rotate freely.

    I have the pistons and rods, but I remember my dad saying my uncle Effed them up removing them, so I don't know how good they are.

    I have the original intake and heads, and most, if not all, of the chrome ignition shielding stuff.

    I don't think I have the original exhaust manifolds, but I might.

    I have the original carb, but it's pretty nasty.

    Pretty sure I have the original stamped steel valve covers and oil pan, but their condition is iffy...


    I've got some other stuff, like the engine stand the block is sitting on, and an extra set of newer SBC heads and some miscellaneous crap I'd throw in the deal.

    I have a pretty good idea what this stuff is worth, and I won't be giving it away, but I'm willing to say goodbye to it.

    $800 firm cash money American would make me happy. All or nothing. I'm not parting this mill or any of the bits and pieces out.

    Come and get it. I will not ship, but I'll help you load it.

    If nobody wants to play by my rules, that's OK too. I'll just keep it and put it into a hot-rod when I'm rich and famous and old.

    Maybe.

    These are the heads which were on the engine when it was removed from the wreck.

    Casting numbers are: 3782461 H144, and 3782461 H134.

    If anybody wants more pics, let me know...

    I also have this other set of heads, casting # 3932441, which are 1969-1972 Chevy 327/350. I'll throw these in the deal also.

    More stuff as part of the deal. I have the "ram's horn" exhaust manifolds after all. Stupendous! Make them yours! That's a Carter carb on the intake.

    Still more stuff to sweeten the deal. It musta been the only 1965 327 Vette requiring 3 valve covers! Oh well...you get all 3! ;)

    Part of the deal, as I stated, was this ignition interference shielding stuff. You can have the aluminum radiator overflow tank too! Awesome!

    The rods and pistons. A couple of hubcaps to make you salivate! Amazing!

    I still have all this stuff.

    I'm willing to do some horse trading.

    ARs, AKs, other guns, ammo (30.06, .380, 9mm, .40 .45)....whatever.

    Whatchu got? Show me.

    Let's do this.
