Engine was listed here and was offered up for the current owner to see and he had NO interest in it, thats ok no big deal. Many owners are willing to purchase anywhere from 7-10 times the amount of a standard 289 because it means that much to have the ORIGINAL engine back in their baby. A few chose to POO POO mine because it was painted black, a few chose to jump on the POO POO band wagon because it had an ORIGINAL COBRA dual quad intake on it and then there was one guy that said it had a FRAM oil filter on it ..... IMAGINE THAT! What some thought was way too much then, is just a drop in the bucket today! I believe my engine sits proudly on display in the FASTEST MAN ON PLANET EARTHS showroom! R.I.P. GEORGE- GOD SPEED!!!George Poteet bought my old Hertz car (6S1855) from Fanasty Junction. I had put a service replacement short block in my present car (6S1431) and used the original block out of 1431 to install into 1855. I kept the original block for 1855 (needed a sleeve because of a carb nut being swallowed) and he called me after he bought the car. We came up with a reasonable price and he reunited the engine with the car. Side note, he offered me a chance to drive a car at Bonneville. A true gentleman among racers
