  Yes, S. Calif. and I don't even know if its seized or what is 
right/wrong with it, it came in a pile of parts that I got.

  And to the other post about a 1275 being much more desirable than a 
1098, its not to me because I already spent $2k+ rebuilding my 1098 with 
all new parts and machining.  And I mean everything new!   I built it 
hoping it will last my lifetime so while a 1275 would have been smarter 
and better, I have a 1098 and that is that.    No need for the 1275.

  Once I get the car on the road, I will likely try and get rid of the 
1275 and 3 or 4 ribbed gearboxes, keeping one motor and gearbox for 
spares junk.   My original motor came from the junkyard and the other 2 
motors I got only because I wanted to one motor for all the exterior 
bits I did not have and one gearbox and the guy said all or nothing, so 
I got 2 motors and 4 gearboxes for free.  I assume everything is trashed 
and useless but I got all the bits like generator brackets, manifolds, 
etc. off of them for mine.

Is it seized?  I would sell it if it's rebuildable. Someone should grab it so 
it doesn't get rusted up.

Where are you Mike?  CA if I remember correctly.
