Lets see... The Power Wagon blew th buick V6. The Electra shelled the TH400 pulling the horse trailer. Swapped the 455 in place of the V6, blew the rear end. Couldn't find a 59 power wagon but the one out of the 64 Chevy was the right width and gear. had to cobble the drive shaft though. And while we are working we might as well replace the rotted radiator with the one out of the Ford...
Lets see, the WC will fit between the trees but won't pull the tiling plow to depth. The D19 will pull it but wont fit between the trees. The 72 chevy wont fit (and the trans is broke anyway)but there's a real nice 292 in it that would pull the plow IF we put in in the WC. Will need the tires from the D19. Custom rim adaptors (courtesy torch and welder) take off the brakes (for tire clearance) and lengthen the frame for the 292. Keep the PS pump and we now have live hydraulics on the WC!

My inlaws had a 59 Dodge that went thru 6 motors including a 307 checvy that larter appeared in their 69 chevelle with 1 307 head and 1 350 head. Because that was what they had or could afford... labor was cheaper than parts.

Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
