12 Whales in there already pulled. He said they where all the small inchers. I saw one with the cast bell housing. He might make a deal on the lot

i'm thinking the industrials can be bored n stroked , late 331 can go to 354 , 354 can go 392 in bores . have a bud here with a 354 industrial block bored with a 392 crank stroked to 426 . i've got the crank , and heads , lol . i did a little stroke and bore to my 354 out to a 371 for a class racing engine . a pic of the friends 64 bel straight axle , didn't show much . need more pics . but he was not so much looking for period correct stuff . just the stands .

There is a 55 Plymouth Plaza 2 door wagon in there. Looks rough & probably no title. I may check it over a bit more. That would be a good candidate for one of those early Hemi’s

first one,no...its a pile,hes fishing bigtime.
second one,yes,would be Perfect,
cept for me being in nys and that being in what looks to be cali.
and having to ship 2 cars wouldnt really work out.
great deal tho for someone local....
ty for posting those,tho,esp that second one.
ive looked up n down most of the east coast,
closest i found worth doing was a 66...not what i wanted/needed for this build.

The ones before and after the side spear creases are fine, but These are a real eye sore to me.
