Waa Hoo!!! I picked up my engine from the shop today and brought it home. I'm back in business on the '49 4400 again after being stuck for 6 years.
The engine is the '58 235 that was in the truck when I bought it. Billy did a complete bottom to top rebuild -- turned the crank, bored it, everything new.
The cost? Well, it was breathtaking to say the least.
So much for the Christmas tree profit...
But at least I have a perfect (except for the color
) 235.
But I'm pretty motivated. I got it off the back of the truck and it's sitting in the frame now. Found out I lost the front motor mount bolts over the past 6 years.
But hey, I'm back in business. This is cool! Now I have to get my body man off his butt!
