Aluminum Block 170 surfaces this weekend

There was a post in one of the regions this weekend about a stash of slant six parts.
In the tread there was a Offy intake, a bare 225 B Body Aluminum Block and a bare 170 Aluminum Block.
The tread was removed because of phone number and no price.
According to some folks on /6 org the seller has since sold the parts thru marketplace.
He also indicated that he sold a prototype 70ish aluminum head to someone in PA.

In all my 50+ slant six years have never seen a 170 Aluminum Block!
I knew they were building them in the late 50's for production along with the 225 Aluminum Block.
But I never thought I would ever see one.

Stuff is still out there!170 Aluminum Block FABO 2024.jpg170 Aluminum Block FABO 2024.jpg
