I took second in the Participation vote of the Modified class in South Bend Indiana today. I Met Dmcq there what a great guy.
Read his thread a couple down.
The good deal, well maybe good deal I turn down?
It was a set of 429 CJ pistons for .030 over bore on 1970 Ford Rods. NEVER used. They were dome top with the valve recesses in them. Don't know the brand couldn't find a name on them. The guy Bought them for his car then decided to go with a flat top piston. At least thats what He told me. When Dmcq got there I told him about them and we looked at them. the guy who owned them wasn't there right then to ask what brand they were.
Doug thought they look like a good deal too.
Oh the Price????? $100 for all 8.
SWMBO said NO!
and It would be a very long time before I would use them.
What do you think deal or not?????

I knew I should have stuffed a few more ballots into that box! /forums/images/icons/wink.gif Excellent job and a gorgeous car. As for the piston/rod combo, they were a set of 8 D00E rods mounted on the domed, .30 over pistons. The only symbol I noticed on the pistons was sort of a letter "U" with curly legs. I don't know if that means anything to anyone or not?
Great weather, lots of great cars but the honeydew list had me leaving early. I did get to watch TFOB and TFOB Jr. change spark plugs and I just cant' remember which one had no deductions...was it you Tony? /forums/images/icons/wink.gif
All the best,

I was at that show (the White 67'GT 350), I thought your car was sweet. Thats a tough class to even place in. Didn't run into anyone selling a $2000 67 Shelby though.

Hey Roddster,
I saw your car, what a beauty. That was a great car.
I didn't know that was you. I would have said Hi. DId you see my son and myself with our VMF T-shirts on?
We will be back next year so holler at us and we'll sit and chat for a while. You had a nice shade spot there /forums/images/icons/smile.gif

I did see a couple of VMF shirts but I didn't know who/what car they belonged to.
