History Some history from a local speed shop

I bought some NOS EELCO stuff from them about 20 years ago. They lived up to their name, at least the Cheaters part. They never shipped my purchase, even after several attempts on my part to get them to do so.

 

Hmmmm
Talked with em on the phone today.
Usually there till about 1 pm
Give em a call

 

Very Kool
Thanks for sharing Anthony

 

you'll want to save that paper element, they dont make them anymore

 

Made a visit today
Fender skirts

magnesium rockers. Oldsmobile

Elco shifter. I think PG

ripple exhaust tips
@Roothawg

 

hydraulic to solid sleeves?


Pistons. Y-block, FH and caddy
edelbrock flathead pistons
317 dual point

engine adapters. These are nailhead to flathead trans

 

Dang….I need them.

 

Was told $25 each. @Moriarity also digs em.
I text the guy to give a bulk price

 

That’s fair.

 

There was a Hemi to Packard trans adapter.

 

Any 365/390 Cadillac distributors?

 

Need fender skirts for a Chevelle?
They got em

 

Not sure.
Lots of boxes with numbers. Most were big block mopar
I can ask

 

Bought these inner beauty rings

cal custom air cleaner tops Elco tri power linkage kit

they have a pile of linkage kits

 

I like these better than the smaller ones
Will work for now

 

The box of beauty rings list gm from 49 to 63.
I’m guessing gm didn’t change poverty cap size in 63. If so, these are that old

will it be faster with these corvette parts?

 

they changed the hubcap design in 54 (from clips to nubs), but maybe the diameter is the same or close enough that they'll fit everything from 49-up.

 

Gonna almost be a shame to open this up

this piece I paid for
$100.
But I’m kinda glad I’m not piecing this together at the hardware store

and I got a sticker

 

Wow. Looks like a gold mine. Even more so when it closed.

 

The numbers should be ZC303 or YC303.

 

Such a great collection of NOS parts and accessories !
I know it sounds potentialy silly, but if I was a big bucks millionaire, I would buy all of it and have a proper updated inventory of all of it, plus have it stored properly in a safe secure climate controlled facility.
Then I would have a user friendly website, that all hot rodders around the world, would have a chance to buy what they wanted out of the listed parts, sell them at what the original retail price was, plus what ever the current price would be for packaging
And shipping.
A money loser? YES!
But the true satisfaction of knowing that the parts went to Gearheads that could really appreciate a chance like that, to purchase such cool pieces, at way less than astronomical prices of today!

 

There are some gmc 6 adapters tand some that said Chevy to early Chevy.
kinda wondered what that was.

 

Could be.
The years started in the 30s. Might have to go over and open the box. I’m curious. Was hoping to find the Chevy to ford adapter that is a flate plate. Not the cast one for a flathead. I think it adapted to the odd ball late 51 merc bell. I’ll try to find a pic.
He had a bellhousing to trans adapter for hooking up a Stude trans to a gm bell
was supposed to be sold.

 

This

 

Wow!!! I’ll say it again, that place is a museum that you can buy stuff from!!!!

 

Some of the pics are parts I haven't seen since the 60's.

 

Guy said it opeened in the late 40s.
There’s exhaust kits in boxes for late 40s cars. I think some of the flathead pieces are early 50s boxes.
And goofy stuff like a 4 barrel intake for a Ford 223-262 6cyl.
I got to go back. Kinda overwhelmed at first.
