Default Rebuilt Flathead Motor in So Cal

Looking for someone who rebuilds flatheads in Southern California. Either has some rebuilds or will rebuild 1938 Ford 85 HP motor. Any referrals?

H&H, speak with Mike. Quality work. In La Cresenta off the 210. Easy drive from anywhere in the south land.

Not So Cal, but the correct coast. I bought a turn key rebuilt from FLATHEAD CITY in Oregon. Shipping to IL was not bad, I picked it up at closest UPS Freight terminal. Do not know if anyone else has dealt with him or knows him.

If nothing else interesting story and photos of a build he did for Mike Wolf from American Pickers on web site.
