215 Aluminum Block Buick

Anyone looking for a Ford 302. My dad has one, it's in parts, and he is looking to move it before he moves to NC for retirement. It was going to go into one of his 66' Mustangs, so he has the block (covered) on a hoist. He was going to double check that all of the parts were there for a rebuild. He is located in Melbourne Fla, so if anyone out there is showing any interest that's the location. If so, I will get on him on checking what's there and what's not and what might need to be done, and what he will be asking. (He wont ask much, I know that).

Thanks
 
He's moving from Fl. to NC for retirement. Isn't that against the grain?
 
Glad to hear that!

I have a 62 Skylark 2 dr California car with very little rust that I thought about restoring but have now decided to stay in the sports car field and sell the Buick.

I noticed several post indicating the 215s were getting hard to find. However, I have found a number of them listed for sale at any given time some in complete or nearly complete cars. Plus Rover used them for years.

I heard Flying Circus garage in Durham NC keeps one or two on hand for use as replacements in Land Rovers.
