Looks like a bargain to me

Interesting! Sounds very cheap indeed assuming it is otherwise a good engine...

Might be just me, but my cerebral suspicion centres go active whenever I see anything which has been dressed up with a rattle can!

How many times have I seen this, old engine given a good clean and a healthy coat of paint to hide the fact that there are no new gaskets, or even signs that the head bolts and nuts have been removed. Would make an interesting door stop.

Has just been removed from Ebay/

No doubt it's mutton dressed as lamb for that kind of price... Maybe it'll be back on eBay painted in a lovely GM orange instead!!!

Been thinking exactly that myself Tony - all the head studs covered in paint etc., it's just bound to be a very bad deal!
