WTB: BBChevy Block

I'm beginning to realize that, Terry.
I found one that has 8 sleeves in it and is priced higher than the car is worth.
Then there is one that I'm afraid to call on that is supposed to be a Std bore.
The guy has had it for 30 years and the first thing he did was ask me if I knew what they were worth.
Well, I guess it was a good noble try to put it back original. These old Biscayne's and Impala's have no where the worth of a Vette. I had no idea that price gouging was going on with the blocks. I just don't think there is any way a few numbers are going to add that much value to this old car... besides it is not being done to sell. It is his Dad's and will be passed down in the family.
But I'm still looking. If there is anyone out there that has one that is reasonable on pricing I'm still interested in the dates and the 351 casting #..
