Hi David, good to hear from you. The car you see in the pictures is another black 71 owned by one of the other PNW members. Mine was bad so I sent it home on a tow truck. First time it ever beat me home and we finished the cruise in a rental with the couple that have the 70 Mach 1 that lost their transmission.
I pulled the engine this weekend and tore it down, spun a baring, broke a rod and powdered the oil pump. But the good news is it didn't take the block, heads or the 10 qt. oil pan. I have another 4 bolt block all machined just waiting for a couple more parts to show up and I will put it back together better than new.
Hi David from Sharon...wish we could drive together again some day. Say hi to Joanne!!
