Sorry for being hasty, wife and I owned 67 bird past 15 years. She surprised me and had it brought 1600 miles to tampa. What she didn't tell me is some flake talked her into removing are pontiac 350 ( non matching) it was tired. But had her spend $ 4400 to put a very nice engine in before trip. When arrived I was so happy until popped Hood and there sat a very well built Chevy. Didn't want wife to cry but I almost called 911. I tried to suck it up for a week , I really did , but it got best of me. Wife was visting sister in Indiana and in a day and half yanked chevy and tranny in one pull. My bother in law just help with hoist and when seen it, said very bad idea. Wife came back and had a melt down, we've been married 20 years. She took a shovel to my 65 dodge after I told her I did her a favor. I need either a running pontiac or a block to be rebuilt asap. Some reason pontiac engines very scarce down here. , I didn't have the guts to tell her I pulled it and when she saw it on garage floor she thought it was for my dodge, I should of come clean then not 4 days later when she was going to pick up friend and i said it had a dead battery. Please let me know what you have, I can't even keep my 65 around had to put it in storage from her. Maybe 3,000 in damages she caused with shoval. Please nothing against chevy people, i just think dodge gets dodge, pontiac gets pontiac.

I have a Pontiac 400 engine in storage that I would sell. It will need to be rebuilt. I would have to get you the numbers so you can determine exactly what year it is, etc. I've had it for many years and do not plan to use it. It's sitting on an engine stand. As I recall, it's complete from intake to oil pan. I never saw it run. I got it from someone who knows of my interest in Firebirds. I think it came out of a larger Pontiac, maybe early 70's. I assume it could be strapped to a pallet and shipped. Or, I'm in Western NC to come and get it. Price will be reasonable. OP, please contact me at davidlearner@yahoo.com if interested.
