Well, "Hawk Baby" was trailered over to "Hot Rod Daves" for the engine rebuild as it was really frozen after sitting around for 17 years. Once the engine was out, and it came out really easy, I noticed something I hadn't seen before in the cowling paint. It looked almost like a signature or "tag" in the original paint. It was kind of hard to makeout but looked sort of like "Sarge". Was it common in the paint shop for the painter to identify himself? Anyone else noticed a faint signature mark? It was on the drivers side. This is the original paint and my mother was the original of the car.
All in all for 142,000 miles the engine and drive train looks in pretty good shape.
