Default Re: Buying a car site unseen.

[QUOTE=supereal;1010719] last year, a good customer bought a '57 T Bird from a photo of the car in Ca. When it arrived, it hardly ran, inspite of claims of tecent work. We pulled the heads to find the block had been so severly "relieved" the top rings were exposed! QUOTE]

supereal.....This is the second time recently that you have made reference to that '57 T-bird with a "severely relieved" block. How is it even remotely possible to "relieve" a Y-block Ford OHV engine block? I'm still having a hard time picturing that. DD
