History
My dad bought the car cheap for $200, because he a mechanic,it sat for 3 years because engine was knocking realy bad other than that it was in good condition. So after 3 years of sitting Im going to put $600 into the engine, Im gona get the crank and rods turned, new bearings,rings,gaskets every thing. The one rod spun the bearing so bad the oil was full of metal shavings .So this is to be my first car in a few months.
(UPDATE)
Just tore my engine down and found out that it had spun 3 big end bearings; which inturn dropped the oil presure and starved the main bearings of oil. So the whole crank shaft and all the rods need to be machined for oversized bearings.
(UPDATE)
Engine has been rebuilt and runs great
Compressed federal bumper
Made stress bar |
