Four banger engine pricing Thinking of seriously about swapping out my "hotrod" four banger for a V8 flattie. Bought a 30 roadster with the engine in it and was assured it was a new rebuild and have no reason to believe otherwise. Have someone interested in this engine but have no idea as to what would be a fair price. Engine sounds awesome and runs out great. Has a downdraft carb setup, Mallory dual point distributor,alternator, flywheel is resurfaced and has a tube header. No information on the internals but everything is super clean. Can anyone suggest a reasonable price for this turnkey engine, fan through flywheel?
Thanks , Charlie |
Re: Four banger engine pricing Just a thought post it on swap meet sight make offer and see what offers you get! I am sure if people could hear/see motor running would bring high money :-)

Re: Four banger engine pricing Be sure to contact your local Model A clubs (see modelaford.org and mafca.com) and put it as a for sale in their newsletter. A local sale is better for all involved.

Re: Four banger engine pricing Be sure to sell it while you can still demonstrate it running in the vehicle if at all possible.

Re: Four banger engine pricing If you could find out who did the rebuild that could be a big plus (or minus).

Re: Four banger engine pricing You'll probably get more money if you sell the hot rod parts and the engine separately.

Re: Four banger engine pricing Pricing advice can also be had on the HAMB hot rod site.

Re: Four banger engine pricing with the modifications it sounds like it was raced / beat on that could hurt the value...

I can start the engine as it sits now. Fresh oil and new gas and she fired right up. No smoke, no knocks just a sweet rumble. Thinking value is in the $1500-$1800 range. I would consider parting it out but I'd need to be assured the engine was sold before separating said parts from the running engine.

Re: Four banger engine pricing Mike, I am glad you still have a 'sharp' eye. I keep forgetting how important it is to check the initial date of the various posts that show up on the Forum. The date does often have a significant impact on the relevance of the following responses. This post is a great example of that.
Thanks again Mike, for alerting those of us who miss such facts. |
