I would love to have it.  Shoot I would even go up to 20.00 for it.  You could make a lot of money off of it.  I bet the shorline engineers would love to operate this motor.

so 4400 gallons of fuel at 3.00 dollars a gallon, and that will get me how far?  Whats it 0-60 time, 1/4 mile time?

That's pretty funny.

 

Good sense of humor.

Wonder if it has electric windows......bet the mileage is a pain

Something tells me the crew of that engine was having a bad day and the engine itself might just have been the main issue.

Take the challenge!  Shop around!  If you can beat this deal, the man in the plaid jacket will just give it to you!  But come in quick--they're priced to move!Laugh [(-D]
