Wow , is all I got to say ....Nice find

 

thank you I have more pictures if someone want

 

ok... i'll bite... how much $$$ ???

 

What you think is fair price ?

 

[QUOTE=B230F;446417]What you think is fair price ?[/QUOTE

Considering there isn't a big demand for these motors I would say about $2000 would be a going price.

 

I am interested.

 

i love it.. ask a question get a question..

let me put it another way.. what is YOUR price?

 

His price? Whatever the highest "bid" is.... to bad this ain't an auction website.

 

you can contact me to my e mail rde@veper.ba.

 

I will put on auction so what do you suggest which one you suggest

 

As I see that engine is probably one of few unused, I will be more happy if he can find collector or museum home.

Maybe some VOLVO dealer would like to have this engine on display.

Of course I like money, but I am mechanical engineer and I will like to preserve this part of history.

 

right you are this isn't an auction website. if the OP is too shy to mention a number then so be it. let it go on ebay and see what the market really is

 

I suggest you post that question on turbobricks.com.

Them fellas are quite knowledgeable about selling old Volvo parts/engines. They be more than happy to help I'm sure.

 

Not a Turbo... Nice to have but really, why? How many Red Blocks need new "blocks"? The engines are the last thing to break in these cars; give me door panels, headliners, bumper trim, A/C parts, seats, door pockets, etc. Engines? Not so much.

 

For the right price I'd take a new engine. I'm sure someone would part with some money for it.

But you're right, i've had my 240 for nearly a decade and it is pushing 200K (80K of that is my responsibility) and purrs like it's new.

 

where is this phantom engine that has no price located anyway? usa? europe? mars?

 

He posted this engine in the for sale section on turbobricks but never posted a price. No price is a violation of the rules and the thread was eventually locked.

He did get some "bids" of about $350.

In his post he included his email... from that some of those fellas thought he was in CROATIA!

It was a mildly entertaining thread... kinda why I suggested he post over there.

 

I knew why you sent him over to TurboPricks

 

"TurboPricks".... yeah some of them can be that's for sure.

As Lou Costello might say..."I'm a bad boy."
