Cant figure out if you are BSing. Did you put a "Ford" based Roush 427 in your vette? The split windows have always been a favorite. When growing up my neighbor had two in the garage, who knows what they are worth now.

Yes, a lot, depending on the modifications required to fit it. |

A Corvette engine in a Coupe is a perfect choice. After all,,, GM isn't capable of making anything as rediculus as a F.orced E.xtraction pile. That's why yuo cant even put one in a Coupe, they got smarter after the failure by putting it in the Cobra.
Just so you know.

You definetly have the right power with the Roush 427. I shifted from 3rd to 4th hard enough the other day that my snot ended up on the windshield. You have understand we had a cold front and it dropped to the mid 50's!!!!
I need to install another lift and get a 63 vette.

I finally gave up on my GT search and got a Z06.....runs like a turbine...no leaks...no squeaks.. no vibration...no stories....plus you can drive it without creating a scene.. I do not like green eggs and ham or cars that need attention...I want to spend the time I have left exploring my sexual addiction and in the abuse of drugs and alcohol....you need to move, that is not a healthy place to live....see ya, I'm going skiing... |

I couldn't let this one fly by without comment. No disrespect, but obviously you're not talking about 1963 Corvette Split Window Coupes. Big blocks were introduced in 1965.
Here's a "builder" 1963 Corvette Split Window starting price is $40K and without matching numbers:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...K%3AMEWAX%3AIT
Might be a tad expensive, but you won't find any near perfect '63 Split Window Coupes for $50K at least with matching numbers.
"Rare" Big Block Corvette in near perfect condition with matching numbers will be more than $80K too. |
