Adopt A Flx!

1947 Clipper Model # 23B246 S/N: 7620

Currently stored at Ranchito, CA - about 3 hrs from LA. Engine is a dead/obsolete GM Toroflow diesel, meaning a fresh repower will be required. - But, as the pictures show, the conversion is pretty well complete, and fairly fresh. A good, short-term project at a very affordable price!
