So after a couple of failed sells and a lot of thought and frustration, I decided to try and free the 259 one more time...
After doing some research I found out that I could remove the rod caps and re use the old bearings with no issues if they are in good shape.
well low and behold the rod bearings look great and have no scaring or marks. I found out that #4 & #6 piston are stuck all others are free. So I'm hoping with some work I can free up those two and put the motor back together.
if I get it freed up I'm going to purchase new rod bearings and run it 'til it drops.
IF any one has any of the following parts for sale please message me thank you .
distributor
ignition and key
starter for a 3 speed o/d
tail light lens
