1966 Red Big Block on eBay, be careful
 

Vin and trim tag are 1964:eek:

Spot welds and all ! It's got a pretty nifty photo of the body off with a restored chassis and drivetrain but then look at the photo of the instrument cluster. That looks like it hasn't been touched since 1974.

Low red line on the tach.

certainly a made up car and not that great for sure

That is the correct tach. I asked the seller to explain the VIN tag and his reply was "I mixed up pics with my 64 I’ll take care of it".

Lets not be to hasty. Maybe he ha more than one car and got some pictures mixed up. I asked the seller this question and gave him a link to this thread so maybe we will hear from him.

I thought the lower hp BB's had a 6,000 red line?

THANK YOU!! I guess we were posting at the same time.

The L-36 used the same tach as the base engine.

Guess it's been too many years since I had a BB. Seeing that I sold it in 1970, I'll accept what's said here rather than my fuzzy memories! :lol:

All better now. The seller added the pics. of the correct VIN and Trim Tags and posted " SORRY THE TRIM TAG FOR MY 64 CAR GOT FILED IN THE 66 FOLDER I ADDED THE CORRECT TRIM TAG FROM THE 66. SINCE THERE ARE BIDS ALREADY I CANT DELETE THE INCORRECT IMAGE SORRY FOR THE CONFUSION"

Good...

The gent was a lot more scrupulous than many advertising cars on eBay...

you sure about that. The L36 and L79 used the same tach. While the base 327/300 used a lower red line

In 66 the base motor and the 390 horse use the same tachometer. There have been some documented cases were some 66 390 horse cars had a 6000 RPM tach.

Then I guess what I said was for 67 only.

Hmmm.. This car is only 30 miles from me.....

Appears to me the seller is trying to do the right thing...still, due diligence is always required. Might be a good value here.

That's a 40K at the most, 'put together' car. I'm no expert but I can see about 25 things that are wrong or f'd up. Then again.......there's always a sucker out there so they say. :confused2:
