Looking to move many if these:

FYI, MB Block #480324 is in the process if getting rebuilt so it's not going to be as cheap as some of the others.

Anything in 222XXX-230000 range would be good, just would like a casting date in late Jan to mid Feb '43... (Currently have a 237XXX block with a casting date of 3-5 that I'm about to rebuild, could offer in trade)

Hey Michael, I have a early november of 44 USMC jeep and need a good running motor. Do you have anything you'd be willing to part with?

Would love to find engine GPW 140720 AND original dataplate GPW 140720.

Anything close to that magic number could be interesting to consider too.

My GPW engine is 3704, could be interesting for a VEP project.

Thanks and cheers, Gianni
