Mart's Project Update 21/01. 32 Sedan Pt. 25. 59 Flatty Pt. 19.
Hello Welcome to Marts Garage. This is Project update No. 1 for 2021.
I unbox, clean and prepare a set of NOS ex military pistons for the Ol' 59 Fatty. Nice new parts. What's not to like? On the 32 Sedan I Fit the rear hubs, including new seals. Good progress made. So Happy new year from me, and I hope 2021 gives you all that you wish for. Mart. https://youtu.be/bG0WY84uJug |

Mat, Never saw a stock Ford piston like that? Looks quite light with only 3 rings. What suze is it?
Gramps PS Yes Happy new year, take care, we need you. |

That seems like such an odd oversize. Maybe it wasn't back in those days during the war. Or maybe it was a European size?

I think the military spec'd the over sizes at +.015, +.030, +.045 and probably +.060. I've seen the first three sizes on the French motors. I also have some ex military +.060s for the 239 and the 221s. |
