  • 1947 M5 Rolling and Prep,d Chassis , Engine and trans Looking for a New Home

    I have a complete rolling 1947 M5 chassis with rear end and a matching flat 6 and 3 speed trans I need to find a home for them or sadly I will have to scrap them out.
    The engine has not run since I owned it but does spin freely, the trans does not want to shift and have not wanted to force it.
    The frame was sanded and coated with rust converter and then black encapsulation from Eastman's and is in very clean condition.
    The body is being used for another project and not available. I'm located just outside Detroit.
    If anyone is interested in some or all of these items I will accept any reasonable/unreasonable offer just to avoid having to scrap a part of history.
    I appreciate it if anyone can help me find a home for them.

    Thanks
    John

        If I could find a way to get it to California I would love to use it to restore the '47 1 1/2 ton that I picked up to save from the crusher. Can anyone help me with this?

          Isn't Bob Peterson coming east shortly? You may want to touch base with him.

                    Still looking for a new home for these parts!! Must go before the snow flies or might end up as scrap which would be sad.
