Re: ZL-1 block on proxibid
 

Matt,
I did not say have the auctioneer pack or ship it, I said send a call tag for UPS and have them pick up the part and deliver it to a UPS store and have them pack it.

Re: ZL-1 block on proxibid
 

Just a warning to anyone who is bidding over the internet and those who has not seen the parts in real life ..I have been to see them in person .

This is my take on what i saw . Their are more then a few parts not as described ..Lot #59 the NOS third gen door skin as they put it (has faded maker writing on them says OLDS 88 and they clearly are ) Zl1 block has been blown up big time and has Cracks into crank webbing .Some of the NOS parts in boxes my not be or have lots of shelf wear . Funky Cross ram intake etc .Like 70's vinyl woodgrain (You can read on the tube 84 olds wagon https://www.proxibid.com/asp/LotImageVie...amp;url=572.jpg)
All parts SOLD AS IS keep that in mind . Just hate to see people step up on parts and get burnt .
I didn't even go back to Bid and i am local .

The aluminum heads looked like a bargain but who knows.

All the cracked,junk ends up at these auctions. A friend bought a 67 never stamped 427 motor w 858 heads fully assembled. Worth about 8K if good Block was not rebuildable, heads had 6 cracks in each head. Car was in a fire and they put it out hot and the water cracked all he components.Only good items were crank and rods....

Every single aluminum head there was blown up, cracked, or welded on or had valve seats that were installed incorrectly. They were all in very rough shape.

Re: ZL-1 block on proxibid
 

Even unrepairable if there is such a thing, if this is the genuine #56 block w/ original stampings intact it's something special and worthy of value even if reduced to coffee table status.
At the very least it deserves a place in the corner of someone's shop to sleep and dream about the past like a respected old man.
