    Installing a new starter motor, ignition switch and barrel in my 62 Galaxie.
    Fixing a power steering hose on my non HAMB 69 pony so I can take my wife and daughter to a car show on Sunday.

    I'm gonna waste a few more cans of penetrating oil and see if i can get the flathead caddy motor torn the rest of the way down so i can get the block to the machine shop for a hot tank session and magnaflux. most likely have to sleeve the cylinders, but not till i find out if the block is cracked. still gotta get the valves and cam out, 6 rod caps off (they're stuck tight) the crank out, and then pound out what's left of the pistons.

    gotta love an engine that sat around for 50 or so years! Keith
