Black 427/400 on Ebay
Is this the real deal?

Probably more than I want to spend but looks clean.

Looks like a good price to me. I just started restoring a 69 coupe 427/400 and Ill probably have at least this much in it before Im done. I dont even want to start counting the hours we all know how thay goes though.

That's a beautiful car,but look at the frame rail in the first picture.This is the highest spot on the frame,and if there is all that rust that was there....I would hate to see the rest the frame before it was redone.

I must say that the numbers do look good on the engine thats for sure. It is a great looking car. The frame was obviously heavily rusted and there are signs of welding in the trailing arm picture, but you still cant beat the price, especially since Im sure he will come down a little. Ive seen lots of cars from "Eads TN" over the past year or so. This looks like a private owner though.

It's a shame to have put so much time, and so many components into that car and to have not done a better job on (or replaced) the frame.
Never says that the drive train is original and it's likely not.
Notice the half shaft "U" bolts? Not correct for a big block.
No mention of trans numbers, vin on frame (it was taken apart, right?), rear end stamping, etc..
