Wow! This is all cool stuff! never let your education stagnate! I'm fascinated.....something I never knew!
I bought three French flatheads in 2005 in France. It was a 1000 km journey (650 miles) and the guy selling only spoke French, but they were 600 euro a piece, so 1800 euro for three. I sold two of them for 850 euro a piece, so the one I kept only owes me 100 euro. Engines were all from 1988, two were green and the one I kept was black like yours. One year later I tried to buy some more engines, but I could find them for a reasonable price. Still regret I sold the other two. Hennie
When I brought my '38 Ford pickup home in 1966, my WWII veteran father said that every time he looked at that truck, it made him think about how many '38 and '39 Ford trucks the German army had and how many of them he had blown up.
