Spokane ROCKS. You could always move to Seattle...they don't get as cold...but the good **** is HERE. I guess you gotta give a little to get a lot Loosing that ****ty job ****s right now, but I know down the road it will be a good thing
Not if every cylinder, valve, and gear in the ****** is rusted solid. Have you tried to turn the motor over?
Did you read anything I wrote??? Yes, the engine turns over, ****** shifts fine. I would not have bought it if it were locked up.
I am picking up a similar condition F-1 on Thanksgiving weekend. Price paid = free I am also have "flip" in the back of my mind, but it will be very hard to let it go after the blood and sweat go into it. I already have two donor drive trains. I got the horses, but no cart.
Ok, so the end to this story. I fixed the broken head bolt and got all the valves moving free. Was cleaning it up and getting ready to put it back together and THEN noticed two cracks, both running from valve to cylinder. Needs fixed, but I'm done with it as that would mean coming all apart and probably tuning into a big can of worms. So, I pulled the ******, sold the pickup for what I'm into it for and have the engine/****** to tinker with. Not really my initial plan, but got my money back and also that valuable parking spot in the driveway The end
