Austin Powers’ Dr. Evil and Mini Me!

 

Just drove past this one Friday. 1940 Oldsmobile Sedan: https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1149325843299917

 

48 Ford F1. Blue Springs NE
$750

That’s likely a 427 in reverse rotation

 

Guy added a video. Here’s a few screenshots

might shed some light on what’s in it
Also has Edelbrock exhaust manifolds

 

Great! I always wanted an F1 with duallies.

 

That looks like it came out of a boat. That would most likely be a standard rotation engine. Are the exhaust manifolds logs for a boat?

that’s what I get for not checking out the link. That engine is standard rotation as the boat was driven off the rear. And it wasn’t set up as a race boat. So standard rotation Big block Ford. Still a nice old boat.

 

61 Comet
$3500

The manifolds are FE versions of these Hemi ones

 

I'd agree where it seems to be a single engine boat.

Good thing that is in CA! It would have already been here.
I bought a lot less truck then that for $600 for my last build, but mine did come with a title.
The pictures suck.

 

Dan here, DD Speed Shop. This one is going to need floors, rockers and some quarter patches, but otherwise...
Still, it going for about what 4 doors are, so if this is your dream and you have the skills, it could be a start. Interior looks like it's got a lot of good stuff. I'd make sure the seat is a stock folder, they are expensive.

 

Looks like Federwich is clearing inventory.

Posting this one not because it's cheap, but to highlight those tail lights. Really cool look.
Same place, about 3-4 miles from me. 1939 Hupmobile
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/28440615342219744

 

Too bad so far. Even looks like someone started a chop

 

Ca isn't known for easy title acquisition, but IF this is the current land owner and they are willing to provide a notarized statement of facts that the truck has been on the property for a long time and they are owners/sellers of the real estate it's been sitting on, it could go fairly easy. Sort of like a mechanic's lien.
