Re: What to do with old Model A blocks?
I bought two engines a few years ago a few hundred feet from your house.They were in the little brown house that was next to the school,that the school bought and demolished when old Tom died.Tom's boys had taken them out of A's in the late 50's to build hot rods.They were good runners at the time,so they put them under the benches in Tom's shop.The man handling the sale of the junk said to give him $100.and take both engine and transmission units,plus anything else I found in the shed.Unless somebody needs something,they won't pay much for it.I'm still looking at the pair of engines I bought still sitting in my shed.When the local scrap boys find anything they think might be A they bring it to me.Engines,no trans,$15.With trans they want $25.I just pay their price,and sometimes I give the iron back to them a year later because there was a reason it was scrapped to begin with.
