My eyes are getting worse as my age gets older but it sure looks like one to me!
They look good together don't they?

The 68 is the RA II motor I just sold - leaves here tomorrow. The 71 HO is not the original motor to my convertible but came out of a hard top car which was built within days of mine that I parted years ago. The motor has no vin stamped on it and the M-22 that came out of that car has no stampings whatsoever on it - just the casting numbers.

Funny driving around with a load in the back that's worth more than the truck.
