News from the auto shop. They recommend a complete engine rebuild. It obviously needs valve guide seals which requires head removal with a flat head, estimates at about $6000.00 to redo the motor correctly. Add in brakes, gas tank and lines, maybe some suspension pieces and bearings just to be safe and we have a half done project. For a guy who is able to do his own work, I think this would be the ultimate Patina-Woody as the body and interior are good enough to cruise with. (as long as you can stand the smell of mouse wiZZ)
