As a guy trying to sell a good running hemi, I found this link to be incredible : http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/_W0Q...emZ330608377307QQsspagenameZSTRKQ3aMEWAXQ3aIT The economy still is in the dumper. If I was 10 years younger, I'd have gone out there and bought it myself at that price.
I remember in 2006 we had a 331 I believe that we saved from a 54 dodge car that was completely rotten. It would turn over but we didn't know anything else about it. I tried to sell it for $350 I believe. I finally traded it for a 48 chevy truck that I eventually sold for $400
I bought an Ind. 331 a couple of years ago that came out of a totaled T-Bucket that had been rear ended. It is the one in my 34 in my avatar. I paid $2500 for it, but it came attached to a C4, also had a Weiand 2x4 with Carter carbs. It hadn't been started in 7-10 years. After install it was fired up and sounded really nice with what sounds like a pretty nice cam.
I found my Dad a running 331 in Southern Illinois, complete with starter, 4bbl intake, Mallory distributor, exhaust manifolds and a clutch and 3 speed for $800 a few years ago. Then he sold it to someone in Iowa for $800.
10 years ago, unless it was a 392, most hemis went in the $300-500 range. you guys keep driving up the prices
I recently purchaced 7 392's amd 354's at a tag sale and haven't seen any offers yet to my ads. I see this with a lot of ads on E-Bay, a lot of good stuff but no one is buying now. Good drivers are selling at a fair price but no sales on the $65,000 or $300. cars.
around here it depends on the day-i think -one day cheaper [$500-600] the next $1000.i gave up looking to many people thinking 'it a hemi so it's gotta be worth BIG dollars'
Near as I can tell, your "for sale" ad is just asking a question about magnafluxing and line boring. If they're for sale, don't you think you should probably mention that? http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=594568
That post was about the value of magnafluxing and line boreing before I advertize them for sale. I have since then decided to sell them as is, and have posted several For Sale ads. I was commenting on this post that there has been little interest so far to my ads.
Alot of folks get nervous about buying long distance and having to deal with the shipping issue. Try offering to crate them and even deliver to your locak truck dock for a nominal fee. Not everyone lives within a 3 hour drive... .
