Would you be pi$$ed?

[notfarnow]

If you bought an 84 SC, and then found out it had some crappy old 2.7?

Imagine looking up the enigine #, or getting the call from your mechanic, and realizing what you've got

I'd be pi$$ed if somebody sold me a 1984 SC.

I was 8 in 1984. I think I was pissed too. The girl I had a crush on was playing kissyface with the guy I shared my bus seat with everyday. Now, 23 years later she's marrying my best friend.

I could only be pi$$ed at myself, I guess.

I am just pissed in general.

Sorry guys, seemed like a good place to express my feelings.

Best,

eeh?
the ebay link , i just for selling the engine block?

only thing wrong with that ad, is that the dude has a slightly over optimistic view on the price tag

I be pissed if I was stupid enough to pay $27K for a 2.7 engine .

If George hadn't procrastinated he could have retained the original title "1983"

Is 27k too rich for an original RS engine?

about 20K to rich, i can get you one , also used, unrebuilt, with the right mfi gear, all in the same unknown condition, 2.7RS for 6250 Euro

ok , the euro/dollar thing adds a bit to the price in dollars
but it's still 19K less then what this joker is asking for it



and get this, you get that gearbox with it


same seller, also has a 3.0RS for sale, which is waaay more rare
for the same price : 6250 Euro's, doesn't mention if it comes with a tranny , i doubt it does

or you can buy just the mg crankcase, for less then1500 Euro
and then get all the little tidbits seperately on fleabay


either way, 27 K without history, or famous name rebuild
is outta sight.

i know which one i'de be buying

[Wickd89]

I would only be pissed at myself.
Then again, I do not think this would happen to me...;-)

American saying (maybe a world saying): Buyer Beware....

Best of luck fixing it up! Sounds like a ton of money already...

Just don't piss your pants.

[svandamme]

for fun , i asked the seller why this engine is valued so high , compared to the 8K 2.7RS engine + RS tranny, or 3.0 RS i can buy locally
