Technical Flathead Motor Disassembly Is This Motor Bad???

I wouldn't. If it was free and you delivered it, I might take it. I really think it's a dead player.

 

Do the old internals & externals hold any value? Maybe I'll weld some of the stuff together like the pistons & valves and sell it as art to recoup some of the money lost on this one.

You might find someone who wanted the crank or main caps and other parts. I think you should get the thing sand blasted. Paint it with a nice shiny paint. Assemble it to look like a running engine. Build a shiny stand and sell it as a display piece. Or keep it. Maybe someday you will find some rotted out finned aluminum heads cheap, or other stuff to make it look cool and just have it around.

 

I think that if it were all I had to work with I may try and do something with it. But as it sits I may see if I can salvage any of the internals and start looking for another block.
