What type of shape is the one in Maine? Running or basket case?


Here is a short clip of the machine running. I think there is a problem with the engine. It's the old 251 Chrysler. He has a Ford 300 & I think the trans goes with it to install.
The 300 Ford / C6 trans is a popular combo that fits in great. I have that combo in mine. New parts are available from Shaver & Sons in Stonewall, MB., Canada....

I'm waiting for him to give me a price. I know he said the Ford engine has low mileage on it. It has the normal rusted areas that need repair for a 1952. Not bad for a 62 year old machine.. I bought 2 1954 R12, 1 for parts & 1 to rebuild with no motor/trans, no wheels, no diffs in them for $1,500. each. You basicaly have everything there. It's too far away for me.

OT.

PS.... I forgot to mention there were no tracks with my machines. That is $ 4000 plus, new belts & new grousers. It's all on this one.

There 251 just needs a tune up and fresh gas and it will probably run good. Not even a puff of smoke which is a good sign the motor is not in bad shape.
