1920's Chevy touring car engine identify.

[Glenn Manes]

All,

I have the opportunity to make on offer on a 1920's chevy touring car. I would like to know for sure what it is before I make an offer. The chassis has a 110 inch Wheel base, and a tag on the interior fire wall says Baby Grand with a serial number 137949. Research tells me I think, that makes it 1922 model FB manufactured in Flint MI. However it appears that the engine may be a later model. It has an enclosed fly wheel and clutch, and the fan pully is a V-belt, which makes me think it has to be mid to late 20's. Due to excessive crud, I have been unable to find any casting numbers, or serial numbers to help identify the engine. Can someone in this forum tell me where these numbrrs can be found? Any other method to identify the motor would be helpful.

I have restored A couple of Buicks, and a few other makes but this would be my first Chevrolet.

Thanks,

Glenn Manes

I would ask the question on the vcca.org forum. Lots of good info on all Chevrolets.
