Thinking of selling, but...
 
Good Morning guys and gals.
When I bought my property 11 years ago, there was a 1972 Apollo Class A motorhome sitting on it. It's in need of a major restoration and we talked about doing just that. But lately, it doesn't seem like it may be in the plans. Hell , it's been 11 years and all the RV is just storage space now.

So, that brings me to why I am on the Mopar forum. I uncovered the motor and did a little research on it. From what I have found is it seems to be a Chrysler 413. I even played around with it and have even heard the darn thing run.

So, I would love to find a older (1930's) coupe and make a rat rod out of it but don't think that will ever happen so I am questioning selling this motor.

What does a running 1972 Chrysler 413 sell for these days?

Ill even take offers here before I list it if you guys want.

Thanks for any input!

The wedge motors are pretty cool, imo.

You can bore it .060 over and have yourself a 426!

Also, I've read that most 440 parts will fit onto it (aside from pistons, obviously).

That's a good idea Mopar. I guess it just depends on what comes first. That '30s coupe or a buyer for the motor. lol

Thing is it's not worth much so find the car!:)

If you can get rid of the Motor home with out the drive train good for you.. Out here in Ca you can't give them away with out the drive train

Are you sure you can't give them away because of the emission regulations in CA?
But it does have a working automatic behind it too. I've had it move under it's own power when I had the motor running.

That looks like a sweet '33. I was thinking more along the bigger body style, say a '38 or so. Love the looks of a '42 and I know those aren't that popular due to not being a typical "Coupe" style of the day.

Opps, I just probably started a whole nother debate!!!! Sorry.

I was saying you can't get rid of the shell /body Or maybe cut it up and put it in the dumpster
