Rebuilt engine? Looks a little too grungy for anything but possible head work.

Me thinks the pic of the engine is the 'before' and not the 'after' ... states 'original engine as pictured rebuilt by local mechanic...'

Sure looks kinda beat and rusty for that kinda coin. If the engine was 'rebuilt' well ...then hmmm...

Rather have the good chassis than the rebuilt engine.
Engines are "relatively" "simple" to deal with. Rusted through sheet-metal, not so much.

Aubrey is a great guy and he is not the guy in the Craigslist ad. They are about 100 miles apart.
