| More on the guy getting 2 free 427's |

| There is a neat board for Ford Truck entusiasts, www.fordtrucks.com. A fellow with a couple of old trucks had emailed me telling me of a find he made, well it gets better, this guy did not know a lot about Ford engines, but he Emailed me telling me of an old wooden boat (that had sat in a lot for years) being dismantled, he said there were 2 light blue engines that appeared to be FE type, complete with all of the marine drives. The owners of the lot were going to haul them to the dump and told him he could have them if he wanted. He again emailed me, telling me they had light blue valve covers saying "300 HP" and asking if I thought it would be worth his time to get them home. Of course, I told him I suspected them to be 427's and by all means get them home as they have to have some value. Multiple emails back and forth, with him going out to look for this and that,, pulling the marine drives off, asking more questions, he gives me the final blow, both engines have 3 small hex plugs above each crossbolt on the driver's side!! |
