Re: The 49' is home !

Ran the #'s last night it seems someone installed a 54 235 Chevy car engine.
Lots of stuff on the net about these. Nice to see.

Phase 1) Get brakes working (safety 1st)
Phase 2) Get engine running (should go quick) it ran recently from what I've been told and I see no reason not to believe that by the looks of the newer
battery, wires and cap etc.
Phase 3) Seal it up, replace broken glass and rotted seals, some rust repair
at the same time(only whats needed to seal up)
Phase 4) Tires/wheels I have some factory alloys off a 90's Chevy truck
15x7? 8? thinking I'd install those covered by Moon disc. That way I can keep the 6 lug for now till I decide "The Master Plan"
