Check this work of art! $52000.00 Says its a 283 and it has the V8 hood badge. Not sure about the community opinion, but I don't prefer the black wheels, which from what I have read, are correct. I think many of the parts, as with any first model year are one year only, and I am sure difficult to find now. headed out now to start looking up some of that info. It has a very early 327 in it, but the ID code makes no sense. Read F0505S, but the second digit/letter could be an O, a zero. The intake casting numbers say it a Nova or Corvette part, 1962/63. I don't think it a factory V8 truck however. But its 100% a very early small block Chevy engine.
