This is exactly as I found her, all alone and neglected. Not much to look at right now.

If you look real close, you can see where the southern engineers installed the rod holders.

And one of her with air in the trailer tires.

And here is what was inside when I found her.

Then the nightmare begins, here's what I found in the engine. Thus is why I have so many technical threads now,..

Anyone have a rake I can borrow?

Formula 78- cool. I like the non-skid, easy maintenance flooring. And the head-less motor- must really get some intake and exhaust charge!!! Good luck.

Project is not the word for it. It was a complete motor when I got it, thats what I found IN the motor. Look close at those cylinders, just look at the rust farm. The heads that were on it were rusted beyond usefulness. The valves were rusted into the seats. Needless to say I've done a lot of motor work. I should have a running engine in it before the end of the month. I'm in the middle of the bellows swap right now, so after that it will be cosmetics only. The guy that had it before went crazy with the non-skid tape. It's everywhere!
