I went from being a mover to being a dispatcher - at first I thought it would be good for me both physically and financially - and I do have to admit that my back no longer bothers me (most of the time) and I am making more $$ than the guys on the moving crew do - but I miss "working" for a living... don't get me wrong, this is ok - but the mental/dealing with public thing sucks most of the time

PowerPoint can be made fun, black and white legal documents, not so much

so I have a 71 318 out of a van with a 727 behind it - I put a socket on the crank blot yesterday and it has good compression.. except for a carb., I have everything needed to make it run - even a half way decent set of headers - any ideas what it might be worth?

Well i sold my running 69 318 from a dart with 904 behind it for 75 bucks............ only offer I'd gotten in 3 months of it being listed. The 727 boosts the value slightly but it's still a 318 that is tough for anyone to want to drive for.

I sent in a cubicle in a corner basement office. Out of sight and out of mind, draw some stuff on a computer and go home, repeat.

Crank blots are rare. Worth big bucks. LOL
 
this is why I feel like I should keep it all and try to find a car to build - a running 318,727, 8.75 Dart or Scamp will easily get me 5k.. what's that thing about forgiveness instead of permission.. :D
 
Everyone have a good day, heading out the door to walk sugar britches to her car (Mopar) and open the door for her and get me a sugar ..
 
1/2 the crowd was there to see GnR and was hating on Metallica and 1/2 was there for Metallica and hating on GnR... it was pretty tense at times

From what I can tell. The box as is will cost $97 to ship :eek: so Don suggested I let Ulf bring the stuff in a suitcase when he goes to Carlisle in July. I don't mind waiting but we'll see how it turns out.

The shifter is too big to fit in a flat rate box, you see. The seatbelts make up most of the weight so maybe splitting it in two makes for a lower total. We'll see, we'll see.
 
Scampy got the dizzie apart it was definitely done at some time since it is painted silver all over and also the inside. the # is 2875032 I think it is a 72 but it might also be a 62 poly with that number sequence the 70's all start with 3xxxxx, I cant find the number in my book at all and online there seems to be the same thing, Basically not worth much maybe 75 rebuilt. Does have a pretty good mechanical advance around 45 or so did not check the vac side yet.

yea - the box was 19lbs. - the one thing you have to be careful shipping is the shifter - it would take much to crush and destroy it - it's worth it to pay a little extra to ship it in a bigger (safer) box
