On a second note, Did you recieve a package from Me? I sent it near a month ago.

Yes , I recieved it on Friday . Thank you very much . Are you sure you are allowed to send that much CASH through the mail ????Those $!00.00 notes  look like the real thing ?? By the way , my roadster is a 1930 model .Hope all is well in your neck of the woods . Have you found any new Y-block projects ??

Regards Lon

I have my eye on a couple but I have to finish up what I have going, the garage is coming along nicely, my office floor will be wide pine boards and I am going to cut out advertisements, pictures of Y Block fords, stories etc etc etc. and throw them all over the floor and then cover them with Polyurethane or epoxy. No scrubs though, but my scrub loving buddies keep joking with me that they are going to throw some in.

I'll post some pics when I can.

Take care,

Bill

Bill,

        You'll be able to tell where they did that.........the concrete will rust there!!!!!!!!

It will be all 50's decor. I picked up some old sevice equipment I am restoring, 4 matching peices, one says ESSO Chassis which is the greaser, one is the oiler with a guage and a hand pump and two are oil drains. they have nice crome trim, handles and the barrels go under them on roll around dollies. I also picked up a vintage SUN engine analyser that I will clean up.

Oh, Lon I forgot to mention I just recently picked up a set of G heads I had done with Mummerts springs, new valves, guides, shaved .020" on the deck and .028" on the intake. It was a pricy bill of $900.00 but they look real nice and the guy that did them is a super good machinist, all he does is antiques from Packards to Fire engine motors.

I woke up the past two mornings to 100 degrees warmer than it was before coming here. At home was 30 below for a couple days and now I am in sunny South Cal. Talked to Mummert yesterday and informed him while in the area I am going to crash his shop like I recently did in Alabama at YEEha Bill's place.

I need a picture of me holding that set of new aluminum heads he just cast, the problem is I am afraid that with my tennis elbow my arms may lock and he won't be able to get them back away from me.

Lookout!! the Mainiac garage crasher may be working at a site near you and come to drool over your troves of abondoned and obsolete Y Block parts.

 I was just showing my respect to my formatable Aussie competitor, by showing the world, that I keep a pair of Aussie boxer shorts "Down Under". It must bring me good luck, for whenever I have put them on, I seem to kick a certain Assuie individual's butt!!!!

I actually ment to bring an Aussie flag and tie it to my bumper. That way Lon would feel right at home, where he has always been,......................................... behind me looking at my tailights!
