I will be with Gabby in OG 1-3 - I will have some flattie intakes, some 364 Nailhead Buick engine internals, and other junk for sale. But, I will be out walking around for the most part so I will try and hit most all of you listed here. I will be there Tues-Fri ....

I wish I could go but it's too far and on the wrong coast.

Hi Everyone. Wednesday was a beautiful day here in the DC area. I'm sure it was one step better for all my friends who were able to get to Chocolate Town! I'm with you in spirit!

Very Nice Jim! I know nothing about your '32 and am always up for learning, so why is that head a good buy for you? Great score on the fuel pumps, I don't have to tell you why. Are they ready to go on the car or are you gonna rebuild?

C'mon everyone, show us what you hauled home, please?

I'm really gonna put this on the schedule for 2018. So many people, Barners, I missed connecting with! A shame, and really good old car time lost never to be regained.

More photos, please, more.

It doesn't get any better than that! Going home today penniless- lol!

We came home Thursday night because Barb's Mother is not very good. I got what I wanted there so It was ok with me to come home. Today I half to unload the Motor Home. I did buy tires for the 32 with free shipping. I also got tubes with metal vale stems. I got a 32 carb, late 32 heads and dip stick. I took my scooter that I bought 2 years ago. I want one with two seats so my wife can ride with me. She road the scooter and I walk beside her. I will have a two seater with a trailer and a generator on the back so {WE] can cover The Who swap Meet. I do enjoy going to Hershey. One thing for sure 32 parts are not cheap by no means I have found.

In the short time I was there today found a set of new 080 over 4" crank pistons for my French block flattie. 4" crank, 080 over, L100 cam is the plan .... both Fall Carlisle and Hershey had great weather this year. Now that had not happened in a while!

Oh you nailed me..... I am slowly becoming a hoarder.... I have no intention of running the police head as the Simmons head I have is rarer and higher compression, The police head IS higher compression than a stock model B head. One fuel pump seems ready to go, the other is rough. Rebuilts go for over $300 so these were a steal.

Mine won't be running well enough for the next Maryland meeting, but the new garage is close enough I may drive it to the one after that. I do have an old Monkey wards heater in it that I hope holds water,

A few pictures taken at Hershey '17. I heard about a 32 vicky and 33 tudor, that were barn finds located in the red field, so on Friday I made it a priority to find them and take some pictures. The 32 sold for some high $$$'s.

There was also a vendor who pushes a cart around with all kinds of cool things on it. I've seen him there in the past, but it looked like he had some new stuff this year.

The last two pictures were taken of my cat "blue eye's" inside my 35 fordor trying to hitch a ride with me to Hershey

Jim, Thanks for posting these pictures of the 32 and 33 Fords at Hershey. Seems that the owner didn't even wash the cars before bringing to Hershey. True "Barn Fresh" examples.
