yes it is the same Frank  ......Rick

69_500

So he wanted $4K for the engine at one time, now he just wants $15K for the engine, plus all of the other stuff he has. Seems he has realized that he isn't sitting on gold mine anymore.

Good, he set out to take advantage of someone else and ended up on the short end.  If the lesson has been learned then I hope he is able to send all of his parts to a good home.

69_500

One might think that if he truly is an "addictforchrist" that he might also be selling all the parts in one lump sum to support a foreign missionary as well. But for some reason I doubt that one.

Do many of you Daytona owners with the original 440 under the hood have full vin #'s on their blocks/trans? Every 69 440 car I own have only the partial vin....but then again they are all later built cars such as 'Tona's and 69-1/2's.

I guess the 500 motors/trannys are early enough for some to have the full vin.    :scratchchin:

More than likely, the entire contingent of C500s were stamped with the full VIN, and none of the Daytonas were - although I didn't check 287970 for its VIN stamp.  Maybe Danny remembers on that one  :shruggy:

I do have a 4-speed transmission from XS29J9G199078 that was assembled in mid-January, and it has the full VIN.  Apparently the changeover to partial VIN stamping happened sometime after that at the St. Louis plant anyway.



Dana's full VIN is on the block and tranny pad........

I have but one more very mean spirited wish and that would be for the sniper to end up selling it for less than he paid.  Shame on me but... :P

C500

it's showing at $510 right now and reserve has been met. High bidder will own it.  :popcrn:

And if 500 was all he wanted just to get out from under his poor idea, he should have offered it to Rick for 500 bucks with an apology.

He says he is selling locally and reserves the right to pull the auction. If bidding isn't as high as he wants near the end, I hope he doesn't just pull the auction because he wants more.

Hey doug, I'm willing to chip in if ya want. I want Rick to get the engine back. I have no use for it, as I don't have the car yet. Can't get a shot at it, he won't sell it to me. I'll pony up $400.

i got outbid.  shilling at its finest, I'm sure.
