Let me introduce myself first.
My name is Hennie and I live in the netherlands, and we are collecting restoring old fords( galaxie's and mustang's) and I own a flower wholesale and a small car import company.
In the flower company we still used our old Hyster forklift YT40 (dated somewhere between 1944-1950) occasionally since we only need it a few times in a year, but the crankshaft is broken in 2 pcs...
the rest of the block is still good, instead of dumping the whole thing I would like to make it running again, and preserve this pce of history
the questions are-
- can I order a new or NOS cranckshaft anywhere
- Can I order new (oversized) pistons/sleeves? or a complete rebuild kit?
- can I order new gaskets?
I hope somebody can help me,
Thanks,
Hennie
