This engine has been sitting in the engine bay of an old Willys truck in a barnyard for the last 30 years. The owner didn't know anything about the motor other than he "thought" it was a 283. It turns out it's a 1957 283 with a factory 4-barrel built in Flint. The block casting # is 3731548, and the stamped engine code is F226FC. It's complete, shows no sign of trauma, and looked like it was in running condition when last parked. The dipstick shows very clean oil, about a half a quart low. I've tried to turn it over by hand only, and it does not want to move. I have not tried to force the issue.

New Land Rover Discovery Vision Concept leaks

Mon, 14 Apr 2014

The Land Rover Discovery Vision Concept (pictured) leaks ahead of its debut The next models in line at Land Rover for a complete makeover are the Freelander and the Discover, both of which are going to be badged Discovery and will be previewed by the Land Rover Discovery Vision Concept at the New York Auto Show in a few days. But we already have the first photo of the new Discovery Vision Concept after Jalopnik published it this afternoon. The new Discovery certainly has influences form the new Range Rover, but it also offers more than a passing resemblance to the Ford Explorer – but then the Ford Explorer was plagiarised from Land Rover in the first place, so that’s probably not a real problem.

Gian Mario Rossignolo, Chairman of bankrupt De Tomaso, has been arrested by Italian Tax Police over misuse of public funds. There was always something a little odd about the plans of Gian Mario Rossignolo for De Tomaso. Not at first, it’s true, but when De Tomaso delivered the Deauville Crossover as the opening salvo we all knew the new De Tomaso was an accident waiting to happen.

BMW 1 Series M Coupé hooning on the world’s highest helipad

Wed, 29 Jun 2011

BMW 1M Coupe hooning on a Helipad in LA The BMW 1 Series M Coupe may have had a rather difficult gestation – certainly in terms of its name – but it’s making its presence felt now it’s here. Earlier this month we had a video of the 1M Coupe playing ‘Hole in the Wall’ on a desert road with concrete blocks with 1m Coupe cut-outs. All CGI, but very entertaining nonetheless.
