Default Re: Engine seized??

In 1984 my father and I tried to unstick a 30 coupe by dragging it around behind our tractor with car in third gear. After a while the wheels began to turn and we thought the engine was too, but the clutch had started slipping instead. Next we took off the oil pan and jacked up one rear wheel, with the trany in third I rocked the wheel back and fourth while dad tapped on the bottom of the pistons with a long brass rod, bingo. Two hours later we were driving it around the yard giggling like school kids, that was my first ride in an A.
