History Some history from a local speed shop

Wow and sad .

 

Interesting

 

Some cool advertising

 

Anyone building a 216
Intake lifters pushrods and mild cam

 

Grabbed these steel lowering blocks
2 gm spider caps
56 Chevy aftermarket hood emblem
Crusty spider cap rings
And Cal Custom remote trunk kit

 

Think I like this aftermarket one better than the original

 

@anthony myrick how wide is that, that would make a killer radiator cap for my 31 if it's not overly wide.

...

 

Big
But smaller than the OE 56

 

Thanks Anthony, I figured it might be big.

With all the curved points I put into the front of my model A I thought that would be a perfect fit to keep that theme and flow going...

 

Tomorrow is the last day
9-3 pm

 

Curious to know how much stuff is left, and what will happen to the remaining stock after the last day.

 

Tons left there now

 

There’s new 6v bulbs
Stacks of FH head gaskets. Lots of other gaskets. Probably 2 dozen Mallory duel points for big block mopars
Shelves of ignition parts
Gears
Winters parts
Tons of FH bearings, pistons and water pumps
Y block pistons
Seen a y block 3 carb linkage kit and fuel line kit with block
Headers, flanges engine adapters
Brake parts
I guess it either gets scrapped or a wholesaler cleans em out

 

Dang, looks like a lot of cool stuff there yet. 4 lug Appliance chrome steel wheels! Pretty cool. I hope a wholesaler comes in and buys them out, that's basically what my shop does. I'd make a play for it (or at least some of it) if I were closer.

 

Just wow

 

I bought the Appliance 6 X 5½, 15x8 reverse chrome smoothies yesterday for my 55 GMC.

 

I was looking at some
Don’t really need em but I might end up with a 60s c10.
Got a decent deal?

 

$75 each. I thought it was decent. Wanted the slots but he only had 3 matching to fit.

 

That’s fair
Ya did swell

 

Original boxes (minus 1) are dated April 19, 1975

 

300 for a matching set of 50 year old NOS chrome reverses? I'd say that's a good deal. Appliance Plating wheels are very good quality in my experience, as well.

 

Dang, missed it. Just got back home today from a vacation
