409 Parts Lot

[Rickys61]

Ok, I've been working on buying this stash of 409 parts for about 3 years. It was right under my nose, only 2 miles from my house. There's a complete low mileage truck engine (422), a '62 068 block and crank, a set of 690's, pair of 817's, two dual quads, one with edelbrocks one with original carbs, one extra front carb, two tri powers, the air cleaner, three cranks, the Edelbrock 6x2, the 63 T 10, 553 bell, tons of pistons and rods that I'm sure aren't usable, new GM valve springs, and all kinds of pulleys, brackets and stuff that I'm not even sure is 09... I will probably be going through it and posting pics, hoping you guys can help me figure out what some of it is..

Yea James... supposedly came from an old local 62 super stocker.. the 690's one dual quad and the carbs were all off that car... that airbox is pretty cool..

Easy fix............make a kitchen table from one of the blocks..............It's "just that easy" as Red Green would say.

Absolutely Mr Reed... my friends are always welcome at my house.... but if you read the posts and not just looked at the pictures, you'd know they aren't at my house...
