We've been restoring a 1954 Chris Craft Holiday. The engine ran rough and needed a makeover. We gave her "the works."

For a "easy" engine, a flathead can be a lot of work! I'm currently building a Chrysler 318 for my 1969 Ski Nautique. It's being painted 1955 Lincoln "Wisteria," which is basically lavendar. I guess I'm a one man campaign against boring engines.
