"OK Who wants it?"

EVERYONE HERE

 

[Eric Kozmic]

Engine looks like it's been recently done? I like the colors.

I could easily see $5-10k needing to be invested.

 

[Iowa 409 Guy]

Looks like a decent price to me. Wasnt the 7,000 rpm tach correct with solid lifters?

 

[cuzineddy]

Keep in mind it left the factory as a 6 cyl. 3 speed car. Built in Flint, Mich.

VIN--3111F217993

 

[Don Jacks]

Going by the tach ,exhaust manifolds,and intake,that engine started out as a 340 horse.I'd still love to have it as a starting point.

 

[Dick MacKenzie]

I'm with Don! I like that car.

 

[yellow wagon]

Very nice car and reasonable. Should sell quick!

 

[entourageguy]

must be a real 409 car as it has the drivers side upper rear control arm...

Somebody probably added that for racing.
Is that the correct shroud for 409?

 

[pvs409]

The fan shoud is a 61 Chevy small block fan shroud. Radiator is a 62 409 not a 63.
Pulley on altenator and upper bracket are small block parts. Price looks fair if body is solid.
Looks easy to update and improve.

Nice car, as already said not a real 409 car. No production car ever left the factory with 2 rear upper control arms, all were added. Lots of bad info floating around. Just FYI

 

[awsumcars]

The production rear driver upper a-arm mystic has just been answered for me.....

 

[models916]

Many moons ago, I looked at a 64 Biscayne taxi cab as a thought of a parts car. Checking the frame and what not under the car, it had L & R upper arms. Didn't buy it and never heard about what did or didn't come with both upper arms. Maybe only service cars had the upper left. Aren't the dimples on the crossmember for the holes to be drilled?

 

[64ss409]

Maybe that taxi was a race car in a previous life.

Police and taxi, maybe they had them by 1964?
