    Was wanting some ideas on how to go about finding a flat head motor. I have a 23T and really want to put a flathead in it. This is my first ever project. Been dreaming about it for years. I don't really have a clue what I'm doing, but I know I want that flat head. I've seen them on here but they are usually accross the country and no one wants to ship one. I live in central TX, what is the best way to find one around here. I would prefer an 8BA model, but not real picky about that. I don't need it to be running, just in good enough shape to rebuild! Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

    Got my flathead off of the hamb. Buddy of mine saw it and drove to austin to get it. Now I just need the rest of my T bucket to go with it.
