Partial trade considered for a 64 HiPo 289 Block date code 4D4  or close.   Thanks

Is the motor sold?  Thanks

Thank you.                                    v

I forgot to mention that the motor I have is a early 63 block and although it has all of the correct HI PO parts inside it  does not have the big main caps or numbers stamped on the block. When I got the motor it had Webbers on it but unfortunately I sold them years ago.

The car is not drive able, there are many parts missing since the car was parted out after the house fire, so I am on the hunt for original parts to this car or any original 64 289 cobra parts. Since I  do not have the original engine could anyone give me the date codes of the engine block for a 289 Cobra invoiced on 4/02/64 ?  Thanks for all of the response

I found Bud Graham that had the speed shop in Canton on the Net and tried to contact his son by e-mail and phone but had no luck. Is there anyone in the Canton area that can do a title search? The Ohio D.O.T. won't do it for the average Joe, you have to be licensed in Ohio as a private detective or a police officer. I would really like to see some pictures of the car before it was burnt and maybe after the fire before I bought it. Pictures coming soon.  Thanks

After 33 years of ownership I am finally able to start a complete restoration on 2380. The car was burnt in the mid 70s in a house fire and then parted out so I have a big challenge ahead of me. I  bought the car from a Bud Soper in 1986 who purchased the car in the 70s from a Bud Graham from Canton Ohio. I have been unsuccessful in locating Bud Graham who was the owner when the car was burnt.
Has anyone ever heard of a Bud Graham from Canton Ohio who owned a Cobra in the 70s ? Any help would be greatly appreciated
