361 GC commando for sale

[Faulkner]

@Ron Johnson

I have a 1959 Plymouth Golden Commando 395 engine and the original 727 torqueflite transmission for sale Of course, the engine is 361 cid with 395 foot pounds of torque, thus the name. Both have been stored in a garage for 15 plus years with oil in the cylinders. The engine is complete from air cleaner to oil pan including starter, alternator etc.
Attached are several pictures that show the engine.
The transmission is detached.
I would be grateful if you could post this info on 59 Forum to see if anyone is interested. I am asking $800 for all but will consider good offers.
Sincerely,
Ron Johnson

Dan,
I just wanted to let you know that I just received a check for the 59 Fury engine. It is being shipped to Norway where a man is restoring a 59 and has been looking for a 361 engine for several years. He is here in the states visiting family and found the web site with my listing. I also had another man from Salt Lake City begging me to sell him the engine, but I had already made the deal with the man from Denmark. Neither man questioned the price, so I must have been a little low, but quite happy.
Thanks for your help in listing the engine on the web site.
Happy New Year!
Ron Johnson

Is it going to Denmark or Norway? What’s the name of the buyer?
