It's looking grim.

You should have come to the one a couple months ago.

I did get some good old Ford quality time this afternoon cleaning up the 289 in the Pelican in preparation for a face lift. Just going to paint the front of the block, swap on a freshly bead blasted 1962 casting timing cover, a rebuilt balancer, new water pump, COBRA intake, and restored Autolite 4100 carb.

My condolences to you and your family Scott-sorry to hear about your loss sir.

You must be going through some crazy weather there, I see it is the wettest day in 75 years in metro Phoenix today and that haboob/dust storm thing this weekend as well! Stay safe and dry
