    Wasn't there a post about a similar looking flathead that had never shown up from the shippers from Louisiana to Texas or the other way around?

    Who owns a motor like that and not know what it is? Unless it's inherited or stolen....

    http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=467418&highlight=flathead+stolen

    Here's the link, it was Arkansas, not louisiana. And it WAS stolen from the DFW area.

    I'm betting it's the same motor.

    From the link above.

    "the motor i am looking for is a 53 ford newly rebuilt with Offy 3 duece intake, 3 stromberg 97's, edelbrock alum. heads, chrome AC and alternator, red block. This was a thing of beauty."

    I've sent a PM to the original poster.

    , the motor i am looking for is a 53 ford newly rebuilt with Offy 3 duece intake, 3 stromberg 97's, edelbrock alum. heads, chrome AC and alternator, red block. This was a thing of beauty.

    This is what the one that is missing has on it.
