Just bring your own wheels!

[Robert G.]

From the department of misinformation: The A Stands for AO Smith Plant Which is where they built all the Big Block Cars so if you want to clone it very easily done.

With a username of Corvettebarn and a feedback of 982, you'd think they would know better.

Re: Just bring your own wheels!

I don't know...Sure it's not an original engine, still not every buyer will do what the seller suggests and make a big block clone, that's not really the cars fault. The AO Smith part is funny but put a crate engine in it and lots of work and you could have a really nice driver. I like the color combo, Ermine White with bright blue vinyl. We have to realize true original engine midyears are getting few and far between this days. The bill of sale part I see as the biggest issue.

It's definitely in better condition than the one which appears to have been in a lake. I think a lot of people would be surprised at how bad their car may have looked at some point in its life.

Re: Just bring your own wheels!

The seller just keeps digging himself deeper into a hole. Now the listing says.

Correction the car was built in Saint Louis Plant according to the trim tag decoding Which is where i was told is where all big block cars were built . The trim tag info is there decode it yourself and make your own determation . It was a small block car when new from what i can tell , but if you want to clone it into a big block car you already have a start.

Even though the trim tag info clearly says it's a Smith body. He's really not helping himself.

I usually don't shy away from stuff like this, but the admission price is tooooo steep.

I agree almost $16K at this point and still hasn't met the reserve....The internet (Ebay) has made it much harder to find the deals most of us are used to, it's far too big an audience.
