1954 inspecition

[Rob M.]

One of our members was so kind to do an inspection on the 'number matching car' of e-Bay item 4600450202. Check out this stamp pad and make up your own mind.

other remarks:
- Zoom in and you can see the block was restamped. Ran good but too quite...has (wrong) hydraulic lifters probably a passenger car block.
- Wrong head number, as we knew.
- Bottom of transmission. Part number? This is a V8 transmission, no modulator and a 14 inch dip stick.
- Neutral safety switch...incorrect transmission mounting.
- Differential. Didn't find MW has a part number of 3698050?

Not much to say otherwise than the deal is off...

greetings,
Rob.

Hoods or trunks with torn off patches of fiberglass are unusually indicative of the part being violently removed from the vehicle as in a collision.
