I'm adding the following comments based on questions received thus far:We have clear Title for the Vehicle.
We have dozens of receipts for new parts but a complete and thorough inventory of every single part hasn't been taken. Major parts we know about are specified in the listing. There may be small parts and/or hardware needed to complete a full restoration.
The 427 Engine was removed from this vehicle and kept in storage inside the owners garage from the mid 1970's until 2000 when it was rebuilt and put back into the vehicle. Another engine was used in the car during those years. Therefore, e estimate that this engine has approximately 40K miles on it, one of them since the rebuild.
