Look at this lunatic!

Considering all the qualifications he says that he has some of the wording and phrasing is a bit poor. I don't think that this is a side effect of spell checking.
It just doesn't 'read right' to me.

I had a look at his other items as he has a Shadow and it does seem a bit dodgy. He wants payment by bank transfer which rings alarm bells to me. The shadow looks rotten as fuck which he doesn't mention and storing the cars in the open on grass won't of done them any good.

This is the kind of shit that really makes my piss boil.

Ultra Rare 1978 427 Chevrolet BIG BLOCK V8 Engine

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/163700376425


There was no

427 Chevrolet BIG BLOCK V8 Engine

made in 1978.
In fact, there was no Big Block Chevy made at all in 1978, let alone a 427.
427s were available in various flavours only from 1966 to 1970.

But it goes further:

this was removed from a running hot rod and converted to a LS3

An LS-3 (GM RPOs are always stated with a hyphen!) was a 402 produced from 1970 to 1972.

So instead of doing the only sensible thing and posting the casting numbers of the block and heads, these oafs spill some drivel clearly proving they know fuck all about the stuff they are messing up for everyone else.
Which is a shame, really, since Big Block Chevies, and 427s in particular, are very, very sought after by the ones like me.

Ten grand goes a long way if you buy the right stuff:

If the Benz seller is a

veterinary surgeon, a senior biomedical doctoral scientist, and a professor of medicine and worked in Caribbean

then I am Robert Oppenheimer. Even if they are bona fide credentials, those in the medical profession are the worst people to buy cars from.

Yeah, even if it's only a DKW Munga they used to get to and fro their game preserve.
Guess how I know etc, etc.

I was about to say this looked alright, until I read the description.

I just posted an Invacar link in the eBay thread on the beige.

That is going to stir some groins.

Poor Cavalier.

What's wrong with people?

Yet another "I've got a vital component somewhere, will chuck it in if I can find it" line in that cav listing. Prick.
