Family Fish on its 3rd life: 1967 F/B Resto

After a day of getting the path clear to get the motor donor out, Not only did I get the motor out, but it was also transported from my dad's place to my garage! The details:

My dad purchased a Trailduster (plymouth's ramcharger) because it had a recently freshened up 340. The heads were redone,new seals, intake and carb. I ran the truck prior to it being parked a few years ago and knew this was the engine I wanted. Saturday I went out to turn it over and hear that sound again, but the starter wouldn't budge.

Oh, well, so I pull the motor with the help of my dad and my youngest brother. Rear cheap steel freeze plug had been seeping and is now compromised. Also the water pump seems to be seized up. Amazing how fast things deteriorate from lack of use.
