I'd love to, but I'm guessing the transport and anything else required to get it back to Ohio would cost as much as, if not more than, the car itself. That thing looks awesome, though.

Wow, NP all the way. Even if you parted it out you'd come out way ahead. It doesn't even seem like it needs much work....if only I were Canadian.

YEAH! It's got a phone number on there too. I'll be in Calgary in two weeks and can help you work on it if need be. My own '69 Chrysler has the same engine so I'm fairly familiar with these cars.

Regular or raised block? That makes a pretty big difference.

I actually don't know! It's a 383 with a 2BBL. What's the difference?

Cuyahoga Falls, outside of Akron. I was born at Good Samaritan in Dayton, and lived in Butler Township for a few years before moving further north. I've lived all over the state.
Also glad to hear from another Ohio Opponaut!

I am in Lethbridge and don't think I could get there until Saturday if I can get the trailer from my dad to haul it.
It might not actually fit on the trailer either.
So much want though.

Well regardless, let us know what the seller says. It seems like a great project.

Pretty big difference? Not at a $500 price point it doesn't, IMO.

I have family up that way. It's nice, but only for 1 month or so each year; but not contiguous days. Otherwise it's too cold, too much snow, or too hot. Lol.

that thing is crazy cheap, you could probably scrap it for that much.

Eh, yeah, good point. You could always just swap in a used 440 from some truck or motorhome if you need the cubic inches.

Regular block has a lower height with a short stroke. Raised block had a longer stroke and narrower bore. The raised block has a much higher potential for displacement because its taller height allowed for longer strokes without reducing rod/stroke ratio.
A raised block with the regular blocks bore is a 426 Wedgehead or Hemi depending on the head shape.
It's probably the regular. There's also I think like a 150-200lb difference between the motors too, but I'm not sure.

383s are B's not RBs. Also, not sure what difference it makes unless you already have an intake manifold you want to use.
