Thanks, @davescuda, but I'm trying to find one with no cracks or breaks.

Ford red for reference I hope @Abodysrule doesn’t mind me posting his picture. I bought this motor from him and painted it Chrysler Industrial red. Here is Chrysler red on the Clifford intake on the left vs ford red on the Offy on the right

So, serious question. Do I need to stop trying to go forward, and pull the cover off to make sure all timing marks line up and then proceed from there?

I don’t take it personally, we both chose Chrysler industrial red. Sure paint will fade over time, but I don’t think it would make up for the difference in the oil pan and distributor in your picture. The CI red is just too red to be right, even considering age/weathering/color loss.

30 years ago place was not even 100k. Now over a million. Should have seen the greed coming

What does that weigh? I'm guessing around 600 lbs..

Nice boat anchor. :poke:

You didn't hit the quarter car wash before getting it home? It's like this is the first time you picked up a motor :)

Something i did 30 years ago regarding my property. Did not change it, now biting me in the ***...

Well in other news, I have the heavy hitch home

I used this. Its held up nice. KBS Coatings 60309 KBS Motor Coater Engine Enamels | Summit Racing

Understatement of a century

Yeah the trunk had not had the old stripe removed and painted in that pic.

None yet in my little one but external, yeah

Just curious, and don't mean/want to hijack this thread: Wouldn't the Powers That Be "grandfather" the car in?

As far as I know there are 2 different shades of IH Red. The cherry colored on I sampled above was the early color. Not orange enough for me too. Yes, use whatever you like. As long as it isn't Hemi Orange. LOL Sorry, I didn't mean anything by what I said. I don't know how many you sampled and...

Great job looks good! I’ll check out that SEM 39143 for my tail panel.

I feel your pain. I had to cash in my 401K, then eventually sold my house when my son had a brain injury. Lost him 14 years later. Now taking care of my mom 95 years old with my Wife and 2 kids. Trying to save again at 66. Nice guys finish last!

I'm not sure what Tim's situation is (not my business) BUT... having dealt with people dying it's amazing what greed does to people when they find out someone died.. and people you never heard of show up with a hand out.. You really get to see who people are.

I need to do that bad... we just finished my stap dads estate and even with paperwork all done it took 2.5 years... absolutely insane... i have nothing prepared for death except my brain :)

I If there is family there are issues....never to early to cover your self

Has a crack that has been epoxy Do you need the gauges and everything else?

OEM is probably best. Good, used should do well. I think Jim @hemi71x has had them for sale on FABO before. Maybe he can chime in if he has any available. If not, consider putting up a "Wanted" ad, and you should turn up some.

Hindsight is 20/20. But after what I went thru and now what you’re going thru; I’m scheduling a meeting with an attorney, estate planning time

Well, I'm pretty sure the paint on my 67 273 had become more orange and less intense over time, from repeated heat cycling and age... judging from the color of the Commando decal on the air cleaner, and the red paint on the Commando badge, at any rate. I wound up using the International...

This is an issue decades in the making..I should have seen it coming

Done. They’ll probably be here in a few days. Those were the first things I ordered. We’ve got cold weather coming and a good chunk of parts on their way so stay tuned. If you find an LD4B let me know. The only one I’ve seen is on eBay and of course overpriced.

Sorry to hear of all of these Tim. I will never understand the cards people are dealt that they don’t deserve.
