SF....seems you're had a lot of inquiries on this SD22. Still available?

What are you looking to get for this engine. I have a project that this might work for.

Make me an offer. I'm tired of lookin at it and I've always had a soft spot for Edmonton Oilers and THE GREAT ONE! Those were the days.

The rivalry games with the Flames were classics. Jerry

Go fighting Sioux!

Thought you guys would like to see the final installation of the SD22 I purchased from Soot Fart this last summer. I made the drive all the way up to Puyallup Washington from Ventura California with a friend of mine in a rented car to pick it up (what a drive!!!)

Upon inspection, the SD22 was a mottled yellow (after all the years of storage), but was indeed brand new, zero time in the old wooden crate. We opened the air cleaner and found only brand new yellow paint with a still white paper air filter element. Then when we drained the oil (so we could lay the engine on it's side), it was still a clear golden colored after nearly 40 years of storage. Cracked the valve cover off and the whole interior was again, totally brand new.

Painted the engine Ford blue, but later found out that Mopar blue was much closer. Oh well....looks good, and runs like a CHAMP (has more power than my other forklift with an SD25!!!) Comments? Here's some pics:
