    Hello,
    New member here, love the HAMB Drags near Joplin! Hey, I have an old B block (engine)built by Joe Gemsa in the late 60's, maybe early 70's. Trying to get it repaired and back on the street but just got word from my repairman in KC that it had been s***ched back together too many times and he would not repair the last crack. It has good bearings, is all there with 4 inch Olds pistons but it is time to put it out to pasture. It hasn't run since the mid 70's but is quite clean, good crank bearings and all just not repairable in the valve area. I may part out the parts or may sell the whole thing except for the Winfield head. A little new paint and slab of gl*** and it would make an interesting coffee table. I do have all the hand written paperwork from Joe on what he did to the engine. If anyone is interested or has suggestions on what to do with this engine let me know.
    Thanks,
    Autojoe
