Ferrari Pricing Request

[365]

Actually, the 250 GTEs and 330 Americas in nice shape, are pulling $100K +, so it is possible that someone could, if doing most of the work themselves, bring this car back to a respectable condition (even with a proper Ferrari drive train) and not be too far "upside down."

Regards,
Bill

Remeber, it was common to cut up 'lowly' 250s and 330s for their drivetrains

I remember when you could buy nice 330 four-headlights for $15K, and I'm not that old

The engine was stolen. In the 1970s. Of course, if I owned the car and the engine matched, I would just accept the engine for free, no questions asked.

That's the reason I asked for the chassis number. I know where there is (was?) a correct 330 America block, stamped with 50xx that's been in the corner of a shop in California for decades.

It could spell trouble if the numbers match, is what I meant.
