Thanks Jim! Not exactly sure what to do with this since I don't have a car to put it in. Will probably try to find a good home for it.

Hi Tony, I have a spare intake manifold if you need it.

Another inlet manifold should be an easy find.
There are new heads available which look the same as the originals but have a deeper coolant jacket and consequently do not crack.
Good luck with your search.
I'm in Australia.

Thank you Terry for the advice and looking up the number!  The engine is free but as you can see very dirty. It had been sitting for many decades so it should clean up better than it looks today.  Wish the heads and intake would have stayed on it!  :)

Be safe
-Tony

Your engine looks pretty rough but may be restoreable.
I had a look in Josh Malks's book The Timeless Classic which lists most of the Cords built complete with there Serial Number and original Engine Number however I could not see FB 1335
You could try contacting the Cord Historian Ron Irwin in California.
His phone number is 1 (562 ) 860 1032

Hi All,

I have Cord motor FB1335 and am looking for a registry to see if the car still exists (?).  Not familiar with the 810/812's so any guidance would be appreciated.  thanks!
