    What's your most 'unexpected' part find?

      Back in the 80's when I was fresh out of high school I was hanging out at a friends farm and I noticed his older brother's '67 gto sitting in the weeds. He'd been recently married and was starting a family and hadn't run it for a while. His brother happened by and mentioned he'd like to sell it....$500 cash! We aired up the tires, put in some fresh gas and a battery and the 400 cranked right up. An original paint, rust free '67 gto was mine!

      A short time later I happened by an auto repair shop in the same neighborhood. I was chatting with the owner and happened to mention the gto purchase. He said "I have something back here you might be interested in". We walked to the back of the garage and he pulled a dusty, dirty item off a shelf and blew the dust off it. When he turned around I could see a manifold with 3 carbs......yep, a complete factory 389 tri-power setup! I think I paid $40 for it. Man, I really wish I still had that car.

     Lot of Antique Car and Truck door handles both exterior, interior and window crank handles. Unsure of what all is in there but I did see some '30's and '40's Ford. Looks like most date from '30's to '60's. I did a quick count and counted 214 handles. Will deliver to Hershey in a few weeks. $500 for whole lot!
