For sale is a bare 352 cylinder block from a 1960 Ford Thunderbird. This will also work on many other models and years including 1959-1972 Ford, Edsel, and Mercury FE applications. Please see the pictures. Any imperfections in the pictures are either dust or finger prints. There is a light amount of surface oxidation that is forming since this has been hot-dipped a couple weeks ago. The five (5) crank caps and ten (10) mounting bolts are included (as shown). This is an original Ford FoMoCo piece. 

This is a virgin unmodified block (standard bore). It was removed from a survivor 1960 Thunderbird that ran great and never leaked. We are doing a restoration on the car and we are going to have the engine rebuilt, but the hot-tank/magnaflux showed a small crack in the water jacket (shown in the picture in yellow outline). Since we had other blocks laying around, it was easier to use a different block. This can be easily repaired for someone who is interested in a numbers-matching application as Ford was not stamping VIN numbers on engine components in the early 1960s.

Part number: B9AE-6015-B
Date code: 0E4 (May 4, 1960)

VERY IMPORTANT SHIPPING INFO. PLEASE READ:
Local pickup within two weeks of end of sale is the best option for me (this option is free). I am about 20 miles north of highway 80, which is the main thoroughfare between Chicago and the west coast, so maybe you can have someone pick it up on their way through. Otherwise I can potentially deliver it within the midwest for a pre-determined price. Serious buyers ONLY can contact me to arrange for some shipping options before purchasing, but I can guarantee it's going to cost well over $150 to have this crate shipped. The last time I shipped one I think it came out to around $250. Pre-arranged shipping will be freight PLUS my expenses to acquire a pallet, tie down straps, and delivery to a loading dock (as required). 

The item pictured is the exact item for sale. Comes from a dry, pet free and smoke free home/garage. Review my perfect feedback and buy with confidence! Feel free to ask any questions and I will respond as quickly as possible. I have many Ford parts for sale! Please visit the Galaxie Speedshop eBay store.

Thank you.

Now it’s the turn of Hyundai to take a swipe at GM’s marketing

Tue, 22 May 2012

Hyundai's 2012 Super Bowl Advert (video below) With the news that General Motors are to pull out of Super Bowl advertising Hyundai steps up to tell GM they’re wrong. It’s really not been GM’s week. Last week they came out and told the world that ads on Facebook aren’t worth the advertising cost and that they were pulling their spend from the (now) newly floated social media site.

Toyota Prius Plug-In is practically perfect in London

Tue, 26 Jul 2011

Toyota Prius Plug-in - perfect London transport We though we ought to do Toyota the courtesy of a non-disparaging headline after the first interim results of trials of the Prius Plug-in in the hands of drivers in London have turned out to be very positive. Toyota and EDF Energy have supplied – on lease – 20 plug-in hybrids (PHEV) to London businesses and organisations (no Joe Public on this trial) to get some real-world feedback on usage, journey distance and recharging patterns. For those of you who don’t remember, the Toyota Prius Plug-in is a regular 3rd Gen Prius but with a length of flex and a set of lithium-ion batteries that allows users to grab some charge from the mains and to drive further in EV mode – up to 12.5 miles in perfect conditions.
