Guess this guy doesnt know you can buy OHV sixes all day long for a lot less than $2400. > http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Studebaker-engine_W0QQitemZ8003484324QQcategoryZ3 3615QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem If I translated the engine # correctly its a 1963 Champ truck engine from near the end of production. 1E27511 > Guess this guy doesnt know you can buy OHV sixes all day long for a lot > less than $2400. > >> http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Studebaker-engine_W0QQitemZ8003484324QQcategoryZ3 3615QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem 2400 for the worst engine Stude ever made does seem a bit steep. Ive got one thats got a good head and low miles Ill sell for 200. Or I could just take the head off and send it,the engines been stuck for years. > If I translated the engine # correctly its a 1963 Champ truck engine from > near the end of production.

Can't be more than a handful of 'em ever got transplanted into Jeeps. <G> The flathead Champion six, OTOH, was a popular Jeep upgrade. So is anyone going to tell the guy that his $2400 engine is worth only about a tenth of that? Or should we wait and see if some sucker, er astute investor, actually bids on it? Thanks for the laugh, Gord Richmond Ah,best of luck to him. If he ever got the 2400 there would be a run of "rare" Studebaker engines on E-Bay though. > But it sure IS rare.
