1967 Shelby 428 engine barn find

Posting this 2/12/2022 hoping the right person sees this.

This was listed late last night in Philadelphia with comments that they know nothing about it other than it’s in this crate and it looks like it’s been there for a long time.

Clearly it has Shelby valve covers and looks to be a big block. It would not have been removed from a Shelby unless it was damaged.

Even if it is damaged, hopefully the block and heads as well as other parts would help someone make their Shelby a matching numbers car. I know if I found the right date code engine for my car I’d buy it on the spot. This one seems to be a bargain because the guy said he wants it gone ASAP.

If you want to know where I found this for sale send me a note via my website, http://www.matchingpartnumbers.com. I don’t want anything other than the credit that I helped get this motor back in the Shelby it came from. Hopefully the seller will be willing to provide date codes. I’m going to contact him now.
