My son and I purchased a '49 6400 this fall, only to discover the engine is shot. Massive freeze damage has destroyed the block. We're looking for a replacement and we're open to options.

Anyone that has a suitable replacement for sale, is our new best friend. We're in Northern California.

Please contact me here or at "[email protected]"
Thanks,

Jim

261ci. Chevy 6 cyl., would be the best swap, as far as ease of installation is concerned. 302ci., & 270ci. GMC engines are a good choice also.

Also, advertise your need for an engine on craigslist.com. Craigslist is popular in northern California since it got it's start in the Bay Area.

Good luck,
Joe
