like wise, the steering column from it...
but the 16 x 8 wheels off it, I need to get a few $$$ for these..I had $200 the set on them at Toowoomba..tyres a pretty well unroadworthy though.
I do want to have a clean out, and I just might sell some of the parts I have been holding..just not sure yet..like this 36 ford dash...I have it soaking in my molasses bath to see how good it is...
but the waterfall is good..near perfect I would think....man, these seem to fetch big $$$$
I have a pair of old school 15" rims with 16" early Ford 5.5" centres welded in...massive offset, but still cool looking..don't think I will get around to using them, so give me $300 pair!
sold one flathead..two more to go..this is a 59 block 239 24 stud 1946-48 style motor..doesn't turn over, just the way I bought it, so suit rebuild..I will take $600 for this germ..I mean Gem...
and..the early 24 stud, 81 block, 38-39 era,truck style.. it does turn over, and was sold to me as a supposed good useable motor...I will take $800 for this, but I have a dist and carb, so I may get around to trying to start it..if so...you know the deal..running engine=.price goes up!
