Bought these at a non auto flea market last weekend ..Hollywood mags (bolt pattern 5 on 4 3/4) with fake knock off spinners caps with 2 ww bf goodrich silvertowns and 2 with gum dipped black walls...I had to buy them i had never seen a set before ...Anyone know anything about Hollywood mags ?

look fake in a way....jeffrey

 

got a fresh 3 speed w/od for 75 bucks yesterday, goin in the shoebox

 

the sum of the parts are greater than the whole.....lol

 

I bought a '70 chevy 1/2 ton pu that's been sitting 10 years for $125.00. Took it to the shop, put a battery in it, dumped a little gas down the carb and it fired right up. I pulled the engine and 350 turbo trans and sold the body for $100.00. Oh and it was a 4-bolt block. Felt great.

BTW those wheels kick ***!!

 

I scored a 40cf CO2 bottle tonight for $20!

I lucked out last time I went in and swapped my bottle out - I had a little 20cf bottle and AIRGAS was out of 20cf'rs... so they swapped me up to a 40 for $5 more. Now, I'm hoping to swap my two 40s for an 80 next time I go in!

 

I found my dad this '66 F100. Longbed, 352 3 speed overdrive, 65,000 original? miles. Runs like a top. $500. He had a '65 new, needed a truck for weekends away from the Freightliner.

 

The pickins have been slim this week but I did score a cool pair of decals on ebay fo' cheap.

 

How about Trade of the week?
I traded a small block chevy tunnel ram set up for this!

 

I bout some steel, thats bout it. Did find an old Champion door sticker in the Buick though. I also made a set of pedals for the ol 41'

 

2 weeks ago I bought a tubing bender and all of the hardware for $40.00 at a yard sale along with a big box of NOS spark plugs still in the packages for $20.00 First box of 8 plugs were for my 454.....

 

Got these on Ebay, should be here by tuesaday

 

I got this:

 

got a 12x24 zip up shed for 125 new

 

I got this for what will amount to a bottle of Vodka and a case of beer ( AKA free!) I'm still in shock! I had to borrow back my engine hoist to get it in my workshop!

 

That board is kewl!

 

How about a full polished 871 blower kit, like new, all pieces for a BBC for a grand. And it wasn't even stolen.

 

I just scored a radio delete plate for my '65 Comet on ebay, it's super rare and I got it super cheap. The guy had it listed as "Ford: early '50's radio delete plate".

 

Nothing good ... Hamb friendly.

Went to the drug store to fill another prescription clear up pneumonia ... and MucinexDM was on sale ... buy one get one free ...

 

brand new pair of Holley 390's for 180 bux

 

I scored with the girlfriend after her bi-weekly "im mad at you" at***ude. then i sold my Shoebox.

 

I go to airgas too, I can trade up or down w/o charge since I own my bottles...all they charge me is for the gas...

Oh...tip for Airgas users...open a business account with them, they'll bill you in the mail a few weeks later and you save 25-30% off store list price...not just gas, but everything in their store.

 

It's not "score" unless you tell us what you paid for them

 

I actually bought and paid $350 for this today WITH the Dietrich visor. It's a rust free, straight Arizona car stil wearing the 1976 Arizona plates.

 

I bought a Ford 9 inch rearend with center section and full drum brakes from a 60 ford sedan all for 50 bucks. I am planning on putting it in my A.

 

Jusy got it today, the front half of a touring body for the start of a modified.

Hooray for me,


CBB

 

Mine from this past week........a runner 60' with a couple of ******s and the guy had this hanging on his shop bench......Neat Fenton.

Chris Nelson
Kansas

Rolling soccer mom style.....hahaha......the guy could not figure out how I was going to load an engine into a mini-van. Cheap gas and it is the mom's van.

 

got this on ebay for $15.85 plus $8.00 shipping. guy had it listed in the wrong catagory and listed it as a 49 when it is a 50. lucky for me the other bidders were cheap ***es.. I put in a $40.00 bid with e-snipe. I really didn't think I would win since these go for about $100.00.

lots of bargains out there since ebay has pissed off all the customers and they are leaving by the truckload.

 

those wheels are cool vintage speed. are they all aluminum? I don't think I've ever seen a set like 'em.


did a google search and so far the only info was from a post right here on the HAMB.

Thats not necessarily true, sometimes it's all about the fact that if you dont buy it now you may never see another one.
