But this is one of my favorites for sale now and it's so rare to see such as they were worked to death, this went through 5 years of war with a wood gas generator and poor maintenance then helped build the country after the war and it has manged to survive all of this.

1937 International D30 mileage unknown but is guaranteed to be high and is for sale at auction.

No, not good. 

Yes it is a thing, but it's exceptionally rarely done, and a bit of a stupid idea. It's not going to last either 

Lower compression ratio for a start, because the head is going to be mounted further away from the block by a fairly significant amount in the grand scheme of engine tolerances

If there's an underlying problem causing HGF, that just needs to be solved. Adding another head gasket is just a stupid bodge, which sounds like it hasn't worked anyway!

This one is also worth sharing. Text from the ad again roughly translated.

1981 Mazda 929 3700 pounds

Rare car. Now even rarer with burgundy interior and black cherry lacquer. This is my hobby so I have been doing this for many years. Got a lot of good parts for this one in the years I've had it. Now I think I've got it right. And I have other projects waiting.
Drivetrain-wise it's fine, but as these engines are known for, they like to use head gaskets. So not long ago I put on 2 head gaskets so that it can withstand a bit of heat/twisting better. This has helped. But it's still not quite good. As it still uses coolant.
Otherwise, I had to fix 15 2 errors to get it approved by the EU last time. So nothing has been overlooked here. I think the car has now completed 200,000 km. Since the 100,000km figure is missing. As I said, this is a hobby car with the advantages and disadvantages it may entail. Get in touch for a nice car chat

I think you are considering this in the wrong way. One head gasket is good, right? Therefore two head gaskets must be double as good....

I've been looking at this a lot lately and if I could afford it I would have bought it, what a great car.

1938 US Ford with the legendary Ford flathead V8 it is also Norwegian sold from new, so probably has an interesting war history. 12,800 pounds.

Someone has, of all things, imported an old Mazda from California to Norway and it has come up for sale and is a bit special.

1989 Mazda 929 3,0 GLX 200,000km 6500 pounds

The outside is a bit boring but the inside is something else
