Well, I truly dont know status of motor per se. The PO got it this way, but it appears to have been yanked and rebuilt and put back in. Every single area of car that could be touched seems to have been so it appears someone went all total resto. With that said, I took advice and went to garage today. Holy crap. ALL 4 MOTOR MOUNT BOLTS BARELY TIGHT, HAD 1/2-1 TURN LEFT ON THEM! That did help it alot. Still got some vibes even in neutral running in garage. I removed accessory belts today, no change. Odd part is this guy went to all this trouble to rebuild everything but from what I can see the motor mounts look original. I dont know how to test or judge them but I know if I was yanking a motor this old from this old car I would take time to go for new ones. Maybe its as simple as needing new rubber mounts?
