[QUOTE="rla442, post: 1406583, member: 13688"] I'm a classic car nut but more into classic trucks and cars than muscle cars. I'm mostly into the old ford flathead engines. Almost everyday I'm looking online and at auctions for flathead ford motors for sale. I used to be able to pick up complete motors all the time for $200 but now I hardly ever see them pop up for sale at a reasonable price anymore. The big 337 cubic inch Ford/Lincoln flathead from 48-52 are the hardest ones to find. The first car I ever restored was a Ford 1928 Model A Business coupe that I still have and drive - all original. The most recent project I have going on is a 1952 Ford F6 5th wheel truck that I put the big 337ci Lincoln flathead in. I hauled the truck from Missouri, the motor I hauled from Virginia and the transmission came from a junk yard in Ohio that was ran by a 70+ year old crossdresser in a dirty Dolly Pardon wig. The F6 truck is an old military truck with Navy and Army markings. The hood and other parts in the truck are marked Kansas Naval Ordnance Plant or stamped KNOP. I haven't had much luck finding anything about the Kansas Naval Ordnance Plant as it doesn't even pop up in a google search. Heck my daily drivers are considered classics now. 78 Thunderbird, 84 F250 extended cab/8' bed (land yacht), and a 95 Dodge 3500. [/QUOTE]
