Re: [AMC-list] 1963 Aluminum block 196

[Bruce <bruce.griffis@xxxxxxxxx>]

Are you anywhere near Georgia?

I pulled a 1965 195.6OHV from my Rambler American. It has a one barrel 
carb, and had standard shift. I am popping a 232 in. If you are anywhere 
near me - you can come get the engine. It runs (ran a few months ago), 
but leaked oil. Would need new gaskets, and could probably use a tear 
down/cleanup.
