History Some history from a local speed shop

I have a friend that has this very same cut away intake, any idea what engine it was for ?

 

Mopar LA series engines, 318, 340, 360 and maybe even 273? Seems like the Offy Dual Port was never that popular, was the concept aimed at mileage or performance?

 

we all got a little peek, right at the end of the show.

 

235 Chevy domes. STD

 

Mmmmmm Picked up a set of 15x6 reverse smoothies

 

Not bad for almost 50 years old
Got em for 4 at $225 due to 2 of em being dirty and small bead nicks from display time.

And 15x6 is perfect for the style of build I plan to do

 

Anthony, can you give us a general idea of how much is left for the last day. Saturday? Tried to get away to come today, couldn't make it happen. Hoping for the last day. Any idea what happens to the leftover stuff?

 

Rumors are a possible auction
Also hear a liquidator make get the contents

what’s left? A lot.
Got kinda upset at myself for not looking thru some of the piston boxes before today. There’s an .030 set of Jahns 2 valve relief 265-283 pistons. I just assembled one.
There’s a set of domes as well.
Seems to be lots of smalls. Oddball stuff.
Flathead pistons
Yblock pistons
Pushrods and odd ball lifters. lots of gaskets.has a huge stack of flathead copper gaskets.
seems to still be flathead bearings still there. Some guy was there today buying all the brake parts.
Had lots of engine swap mounts. Hurst stuff
BBC roller cams
Some multi carb linkage kits.

 

Some of the non hurst shifters.

still had hurst shifters today

 

Thanks, Anthony.

 

Thank you , my friend

 

Dang wish I was closer, just picking through all the goodies would be a total rush. On second thought maybe it’s a good thing I’m so far away lol

Yep.
I better not go back

 

This would be ideal for someone who does the big swap meets.

 

Glad it's not getting scrapped, I wonder what it would take to buy it all? Probably going to be a relative bargain for someone who has some decent cash up front and space to warehouse it. That shit would do great on eBay given some time and effort.

 

More dates

 

What a treasure trove! I wish I was closer but, if I were, they would have a lot of trouble getting me out of there. Hopefully this stuff gets bought up and then offered for sale again in support of the hobby.

 

I wonder how many people made offers on stuff over the years and were turned down only for it to come to this? Pigs get fat, hogs get slaughtered.

 

Almost makes a guy cry!

$350 for the cyclone display

 

one more last chance
Almost like a furniture store.
But this one sounds like the real one.

 

One more week
