Gas Guzzler Flathead V8

Anybody in my neck of the woods running one of those "Gas Guzzler" Flathead V8 engines that would like to trade for a "Gas Saver" Flathead 6 226 let me know.

Anyone with those heavy old steel fenders in cherry shape can trade me for some fuel-saving 'glass ones too...

There are a few on craigslist in the Portland area. One really purty-looking one all dolled up for $4,500. Not too far of a drive for you.

I've got plenty of ones like that!! I think they came from the factory that way.
