Engine is seized, going to pop the head and see what we can do to loosen her up. Seems to be complete though. I don't know much about this version of the Model U. If you have information please share. Also if there are a few experts on this engine I would love to talk to them sometime via Phone, much appreciated 👏 Have a great Orange day!  ------------- Galatians 5:22-24 "I got a pig at home in a pen and corn to feed him on, All I need is a pretty little girl to feed him when I'm gone!" |

Let us know what it looks like when you pull the head off. Or, do you have one of the $25 phone borescopes to poke in the spark plug holes? They are a no brainer at the price these days. ------------- 1939 B, 1940 B, 1941 WC, 1951 WD, 1952 CA, 1956 WD-45 |

Great find. I have a 37 U & UC so I can't help you much with the Continental. What year is it? Should be getting close to the Century Club. Leon B Mo ------------- Uncle always said "Fill the back of the shovel and the front will take care of itself". |

We need to find a show somewhere between us and meet up with the 37 U's, mine is in original clothes for now. I also have a continental U, complete, with what I believe to be a bent valve and don't know why yet. ------------- Maximum use of available resources! |
