Car was final-assembled on or about January 20, 1969. Consignor states the engine is "...original to this car." Consignee seems to know better.

It's an 010 block casting that was introduced to production early April, 1969.

Doesn’t even seem to be a 69 block. Engine assembly stamping isn’t original. 1970 axle.
