() Date: November 27, 2020 04:03AM It's in Cave Creek which is close to Phoenix. I was sent some low res pics about two weeks back. Apparently abandoned log ago. Wasn't interested so didn't ask anything further. Was told the owner is out of state and that the car had to be gone in 30 days since the property it is on was sold.

() Date: November 27, 2020 09:55AM Oldsmobile heads and a factory four barrel intake should be worth something. High mounted expansion tank, so must have had some of the burping problems solved. Decent body, at least compared to my '65 Corsa, which was going to get my 215. Where did you find the ad, Matt, or did someone call you, like they did with Dave? Scott Danville, In.

() Date: November 27, 2020 10:07AM I am in contact with the seller. I have done an inspection on the car. It does not roll. Tired won’t hold air. I am trying to reach the owner to connect interested parties. Owner is not a forum member.

() Date: November 27, 2020 02:41PM I'm 35 miles from Cave Creek so i thought I would go check it out. I drove up there & the business was closed on Black Friday. The car was not in the fenced parking lot shown in the photo so it may be sold.

() Date: November 27, 2020 03:29PM Ever since I saw/heard a rear mount 215, I’ve thought they were super cool. Don’t seem to see them much though.

() Date: November 27, 2020 07:21PM Scott, that looks like an aluminum intake manifold. Did the factory install an aluminum manifold? Go get it Scott. You will be 3/4 the way to your V-8. Looks like you will need to add an alternator. Jim Re: Who knows about this 215 / rear mount LM in the PHX area? Posted by:

Jim I believe all the 215 intakes - Olds, Buick, turbo and NA were aluminum Re: Who knows about this 215 / rear mount LM in the PHX area? Posted by:

() Date: November 28, 2020 06:01AM Thanks for the encouragement, Jim, but with the head bolts all missing (teardown because of problems?) and the engine open to the elements, I might be money ahead to stay with what I have. Quandary now is whether to cut down the Buick 300 crank to fit my 215 block, or go with a later Rover block for more displacement. Moot point anyway, play money for the rest of this year went to a Nash fan for the Monza. nirvairna is correct, all 215 intakes were aluminum, as well as those on the '64 Buick 300 V-8s. Funkiest I came across during the time I was playing with a '62 Jetfire was the '61 only Olds two barrel. Carb almost completely encased by the air cleaner. [i.ebayimg.com] [i.pinimg.com] Think I have located major parts for the reverse rotation V-8, I was lusting after the southwest body with no (visible) holes. Picture of my Corsa explains the rest.

() Date: December 24, 2020 07:35AM So is someone here interested in it? Certainly hope to see it saved. I would be as I have plans of building a 215 car - but too much going on right now to make it happen. Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum. |
