    I was goofing off for a little while today and decided i would shoot thru the craigslist auto parts section for a while and came across an add listing for three separate flatty deuce manifolds for sale . Has luck would have it the seller was only three blocks away from my shop.So i figured what the hell i would make
    a quick run on over and check it out..............Here's what i bought........I am frickin STOKED!!!!!!

    this is why i cant get away from the computer. when i step away i feel like someone is posting something like one of those or some other great find on craigslist or posting something incorrectly on ebay. my girl thinks i have a real problem.

    Forgive my ignoramusness, how much would these sell for? I know it is bad form to discuss something as trite as money in the middle of a wonderful score like that, but just to put it in perspective for me...

  19. great score...I picked up a 46 chevy pickup about a year ago and laying on the floorboard were a couple of old manifolds that the guy threw in with the car...after using a leaf blower to get rid of all the rat dung I found a thickstun and an Edmunds intake...was able to sell them both for a decent amount...you definitely scored a good deal

  21. Sure, you're happy now, but I think you will be disappointed with the mileage on those. :)

    They seem kind of dirty to me. I probably would have only given $50 each.
