Hey Guys I was stomping around in abandoned Orange Groves near polk City this morning and found what I think is a real early chevy! what is strange is that it has a strange 8 cyl engine in it it is a v8 with overhead valves but it dosen't have valve covers and has a realy primitive looking distributor
does anyone know what this might be and is it worth trying to get out of the old tractor shed that it is in?
