Re: Looking for an AA engine block-Prefer early 31

[quote="Model AA Rookie"]Trying to restore my 31 AA dumptruck and realized I don't have a AA engine. I have 2 A engines but no AA. Anyone with one please let me know. The closer to Maine the better. Thanks :D

There's one in Scranton PA on eBay now: item 281700170885.
