Hello, I'm from the Left Coast, and currently ***embling my 40 Ford pickup. Genuine 8BA flatmotor 270 cu in, "RUG" 3 speed, Explorer 8.8" rear. Cab being finished in prime at bodyshop, had all new steel put in bottom. Engine is a mild flattie, Isky Max 1, .060 bore, 4" merc crank, Mallory electronic crab dist, and a pair of those new Strombergs on top. Also an alt, that looks like the old timey generator.
