oldest cars I hve tackled so far so man I need help..

How To Build A Flathead Ford V-8 by George McNicholl.
Published by Motorbooks international
ISBN 0-7603-1493-4

You can't go wrong with this book. It's about the best I've seen with
detailed buildups including performance street engine, blown engine and an
ardun OVH build as well. This book walks you through the tear down and
restoration of all 3 scenarios with pictures, part numbers, etc. Well worth
the $25.
