flatheads are expensive, but that only brings more attention to alternative vintage V8's. Y's and FE's.
Fords are just more money in any case.
glad i have all three.

A guy in my car club has a 39 Ford coupe sitting on a fatman frame with no engine or trans he is asking $10,500 for. I haven't told the wife yet but have thought of offering a little less and see if he takes it.

I agree with Tim...If I can have only one classic car, a '39 or '40 Ford coupe is it!!...Someday.

Would like to get a better view of those exhaust manifolds.

That is one car I have always wanted!  Always thought it would have a Flatty but a Y will do in a pinch. I agree but Flatheads have become a highly expensive habit of late, more than Yblocks for sure.
