This fellow got two free 427's

I post on another board that specializes in Ford Trucks. One of the fellows on there Emailed me and told me he had seen some guys taking chain saws to an old Wooden boat that had been sitting in a lot for about 20 years. He walked up and to his surprise saw what appeared to be 2 Ford Fe motors. Hesaid they were getting ready to haul them off to the dump. He told me they looked like Fe's but were light blue and said "300 HP" on the valve covers. He was thinking about taking them as they offered them to him to haul off but he wasn't sure if they would be worth getting.
I advised him to grab them or tell me where they were.

He emailed be back today and said he followed my advice, and is now the proud owner of 2 427 marine engines complete with all of the mairne drive/running gear.

He also said his wife thinks he is nuts for dragging all of that "JUNK" home.

Women!
