Default Happy Birthday to me....

My 67th birthday present... We bought this '29 last Sunday, off of ebay, and made the trip down to Greenville, Tx. yesterday (my birthday) and brought it back to NW Arkansas. This is a beautiful 30+ year old restoration. It belonged to the grandfather (not sure if he bought it new) then the father inherited it (he did the restoration) and then the son.

Now, to point of this post...

The engine is in boxes! Now I'm a fair mechanic but I don't have a clue or the equipment to rebuild a Model A engine! I need a person/place, as close as possible to NW Arkansas, with the ability to put the engine back together again. Block is clean but needs to be bored out to .080, rods need to be re-babbitted and then re-assembled. It came with new .080 pistons, rings, gaskets and such. Does anybody have any suggestions as to where I can get the motor work done? Thanks...
