I agree on the Hemi. Ours was originally a 331 Hemi. Sadly the engine could not be saved. We put a Dual Quad 392 from a 57 Chrysler New Yorker...
The one my brothers and I are restoring was a 331 Hemi car. Sadly the original engine was not rebuildable.
They may be slightly modified, but they appear to be Ford. Here are mine.
Also didn't mean to hijack your post 42merc. Good luck on the search.
Sorry to create a stir! It's a 1957 392 with 10.5:1 pistons. We are using the dual quad setup from the 331. Engine and carbs are freshly rebuilt.
Our 52 Muntz (number M133) had a 331 Hemi. When we started to rebuild we found the block was cracked on both sides. For now we are putting a 392...
Some stuff you just need to fabricate yourself. We just made a set of floor pans from 16 gauge flat stock. I made the templates on the cardboard...
You can find a lot of those Ford parts for your Muntz at shoebox-central.com.
Keep up the good work. You are a lot farther along the we are. My older brother bought this 52 Muntz when he was 15 1/2, 1978. He past away...
Currently restoring a 52 Muntz with my Dad and Brothers
