Do you think 7k is too steep for me to ask for this?

we had a guy shoot and kill two cops yesterday. You don't think a guy could give someone receipts for different parts than what's in the motor he's selling?

Sure did, I sold it for him on Craigslist to a guy in Miami.

Edit*

But it was a Dart Block, built with the BEST of everything. I think he had almost 8,400 in the short block.

You don't sound like a guy who buys many used parts to begin with. Theres a certain amount of 'going out on a limb' when buying anything used. Parts or entire cars.

HAHA yeah, you caught me there. I build air cooled VW's now. They haven't sold one new in this country since 1980. I know nothing about buying and selling used parts.

You can hear the difference between stock internals and forged internals? You must be very observant.

Oh and yeah, he's not selling the whole car. I guess you aren't that observant.

Years ago I bought a coupe off of TR. The guy said it had a 347 in it. He even had a receipt. But the receipt just had "347 race motor" written on it. That doesn't mean that motor is in this car. I bought the car because for the price, it was still a good deal even if it was a stock motor (it didn't run). Many people (all of the smart ones) will do the same. They won't just trust the guy selling it to list all of the parts, they will want to see it themselves.

I buy and sell used parts all the time, but I won't buy internal engine parts from a swap meet because I can't easily verify crank journal diameter, stroke, bore size, etc. I know alot of people who feel the same way.

^ Same shit as mine, except stroked and zero balanced instead of 28oz imbalance. Well, and my carb isn't included. And my shit is brand new. Just goes to show, people will try to call you out on anything.

I hope that wasn't directed at me?

First, that one hasn't sold yet either. Second, you obviously don't get my point, or just refuse to because it scares you to think how much you may actually get for that stuff.

I'm not saying you won't get $7k, hell, you could have someone give you $8k because of your disability I'm just saying that me, and most people I know, will want visual proof of the parts in the motor rather than just taking the word of some guy from the internet and a piece of paper.
