Barn find 72 340 duster

I am very happy that each thing I remove from the engine you can tell it's never been removed. this will make it sooo much easier to document the factory methods of assembly and finishes. Correct bolts in the correct places.
This type of resto, the engine/trans will always be the last system to to be rebuilt but wanted to remove the exhaust manifold and take a photo of the vin pad. also wanted to see it the engine was a cast crank or forged crank. Dave and I were talking about how close production date was to TSB bulletin about change over to cast and had us both wondering it status..
