studerex Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 Price and location? big or small 8? Condition? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StudeLS3 Posted January 12 Author Share Posted January 12 Parts are located in Zeeland Michigan. I am trying to find information on how much these parts are worth but can't find much on things this old. The engine, I was told was overhauled approx. 35 years ago, was reinstalled in the car and never run. The engine was in Victoria and if it is the big or small 8, I have no idea. I am sure the engine would have to be disassembled. The bearings might be OK but I am sure the cylinders will need work. I will try to find out if it is the big or small 8. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe someone can tell me where to look. Here are pictures of the 1929 President 8 and Commander 8 engines. I have circled the location of the stamped engine number for both engines. If the President is a 1929 the stamped engine number will begin with "FE" A 1929 Commander 8 stamped engine number will begin with "FD" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jet Doc Posted Tuesday at 12:22 AM Share Posted Tuesday at 12:22 AM I would be interested in all of the parts if they came from an FD Commander. I’m in SW Michigan, about an hour away. Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StudeLS3 Posted yesterday at 02:25 AM Author Share Posted yesterday at 02:25 AM The parts come from a President Victoria. The tag on the fire wall is FHC with some numbers behind that. The parts I have are mechanical parts no body parts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does the water plate above the water pump have squared or rounded ends? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
