Well, I got a new job a few months ago at So-Cal Speed Shop Sacramento. Every time I start hunting through the warehouse I find more and more neat stuff and I thought you guys would appreciate some good shots. It's like having an old barn to find things in whenever we need 'em!!! There are a few Vern Tardel Roadsters, more flatheads than you can shake a stick at, and some good odball parts. Enjoy!!!
Need some NOS flathead blocks or parts?! How about an UNRESTORED '32 roadster 4-banger car? How about that much needed 400 hp model A 4-cylinder? Here is your T chassis with an overdrive AND a ruckstell differential. Yup, EIGHT forward gears!!!
And.... THEY ARE ALLIANCE VENDORS!!!!! Good to see ya online homie... and thanks for the pics. See you guys this weekend.
Thanks for the tour. I wasn't sure about the whole franchise idea, but that is a real old fashioned speed shop! You NorCal guys are lucky to have that shop available to you. So go buy something tomorrow - keep'em in business.
Thats why I thought that, I have only seen one up close and in person....wow they have the market cornered on those.....viva la France
Lots of garbage in that joint! Tell you what, I will drive up from L.A. and clean the place up at no charge so you can open a Starbucks there instead.
Damm!!!!!!!!That is a nice shop! The French engines are brand new 239s !!! Is all of the old stuff for sale , too?
yeah, i am spoiled rotten. and i thought i had it good working at sac vintage!!! yes, those flatties are french and all the crates are NOS french blocks. there are about 400 more complete engines coming in. the main building is open now and the warehouse should be open to the public in a few months. if you call ahead, i would be more than happy to give 2 cent tours to hambers. if there is a part you are looking for, let me know and i may be able to help you out. -Rob (drZ)
yes we are!! and we will extend that into used parts as much as we possibly can. jess and dan will be making it out. joe and i will be back here in nor*cal workin' everything must go!!!
400 more? Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaamn. That's a lot of flatheads! How much $ are you selling those things for?
well, if you want to get technical, we are there too! we will have a booth at the hot rod reunion. if you tell dan at the booth that you are an alliance member, you will get 10% off. if he does not have it with him, we will ship it for free (as long as it does not have to go truck freight). yup! about 400 more (and they are hiding in texas right now!!!) the bare block are remachined and sell for $2650. i don't think there is a price on the complete engines yet, it will be dependant on the HP as they will be built to spec. -dZ
