Not Ranked
I have one
I have a '67 S code Fastback here in Cape Coral, FL. My car is pristine, but the 390 was getting tired and I installed a 428 with all the 390 goodies bolted to it. Basically I switched out the short block. My car was also a non- AC car, but I bought the "Perfect Fit" system from Classic auto air in Tampa and the kit comes with all the dashboard vents as the original had. Works great. I have been offered 45K for mine as it sits (last year).
The back of the driver side block below the head was not stamped until '68 so no one but you will know that a 428 is in there. The original block really means nothing except to the absolute purist. A future buyer will want the car or not- the purists are few.
My air cleaner still says 390, but for the local Autozone gatherings, I have a magnetic "428" that I put over the 390 on the air cleaner. I take it off for the "Purist" shows.
If it was close to me, I would pick it up for sure.
