Searching for a Ford Flathead V8
Sadly my F30 has had a slight engine mishap and has too many cracks to make it economical to repair. Am searching in Europe and the USA for an engine that wont cost more than the F30! I could get away with a non cracked block and a new crankshaft as everything else is good.
Ideally this type... "Engine description in CMP book is V-8 90 L head . 95 HP." Any leads/suggestions greatly appreciated .....and yes she is very pink. alexanderyearsley@gmail.com

If you are looking for a 21 stud this ones on eBay in the U.K. currently, about 10 miles from me, says it was originally a pump unit but it’s got double pulleys on the water pumps so suspect military?.

indeed....i believe it started in Tunisia in 41.....the rocks and iron in them gave a very pink/red hue at certain times in the day so was a very good camouflage colour....various rumours as to how it started ..some say it was observing a plane that was sandblasted down to the primer in the desert and that gave someone an idea to paint various shades of pink......
