Anyone discover the "find of a lifetime" in Turlock this year?

Who went ? What did you see ??

We did not find any 'A' deals.
Best part of the swap meet was talking to the folks from Turlock Machine.
These guys know how to build a real engine for a Model A.
Even had a 'B' engine on a stand that he fired up for us. Impressive.
If you were looking for 50's Chevys or low rider stuff.... plenty of it there!

I have been searching for a "B" block for a couple of years. I found one at Turlock. Met and talked with Les Andrews who suggested a shop to take my newly found block to for cleaning and testing.
