    well I have had all the parts laying around for a bit they just were just not installed on the motor. yeah im a jerk for not polishing the valve cover but the motor is coming out come winter.:eek:

    I have never seen a whole sharp set before and usually get one PM a week about the side cover and valve cover. here they are in all their dirty glory.

    Where did you find all the Sharp parts? I have never seen all of them together other than in an original Sharp catalog.
     
  10. That is quite a nice setup!

    Anyone who doesn't like this should ask themselves if they really like traditional rods or not.

    Me too! :D
    As I wrote in another thread, we sold a set of flathead SHARP heads we spent years looking for. We just had to have them but another guy had to have them more than we did later.
    Saw several pair at Daytona Turkey Run over the years, $500. Have no idea how good.
    Youngest son talked my highschool buddy out of a two carb SHARP intake over ten years ago. This guy has tons of flathead **** and old Fords and Mercs.
    We have a 47 Merc running on frame but don't know if we'll ever get it under our 46 Merc coupe.
    With the same last name it would be so kool!;)

    Coupe looks really cool. I like that you kept the 216 in it. I have a 48 Aerosedan with some custom work but still in primer. It has a 350 in it but I often wish I had left the 6 in it. Keep up the good work.....
