pics plez.

I like following along on your projects.

I found a free 67 polara 440/727 in the woods and drug it home.. LOL! not a sweet find like you run up on but it does have a couple nice pieces left.

this thing must have sat out in the field for 20+ yrs.

all the steel carb linkage is rusted away, 50% of both valve covers rusted away, rockers/retainers/springs/head bolts, alt pulley rusted off, valley pan rusted 80% away, oil pan/dust cover sound super thin/rusted. hope to save the cast iron block/heads

but a nice 67 square bore intake, throttle clamp bracket, 3 piece PTK rods/levers/bellcranks.

nice cast iron crank pulley/damper

nice set of rear dump manifolds

hopefully some good hard parts like crank/seal reatianer rods

complete BB 727 hope it has some good stuff left inside.

scored a mid 80s 4x4 rolling chassis for free, weathered sb/ alum intake/headers trans VB = MIA but xfer/shafts are there.

farmer asked me "YOU REALLY WANT THAT JUNK?"

you come out here and load it you can have it free.
