1929 Essex

[qtband]

I've been working on this for some time. I ran out of money until I got into go-karts. Now, I rebuild a couple, sell them, then use the cash to fund the Essex! So far, it's working out pretty good. Here are some pics...

Nice Good work so far. It must be hell trying to find part though

Now that is just fantastic! What a beautiful (and unique) project. Tell us more about it! Looks like a pretty cool flathead six!

Wow awesome!

That engine looks sexual as. Nice piece of history you got there. Do you have any history on it?

I bought it off Ebay about 10 years ago from a guy in Wisconsin. That's all I know about it. Like the go-kart forum, the Essex forum I found is full of helpful people. I did a lot of work on the engine over the past winter. Now it's on hold again as I bought a house to rehab (flip) over my summer vacation. At least when I sell it, I can put a few $$ in the Essex!

Sounds like a plan!!!!!
