Say hello to Phil Reed

[Phil Reed]

What a weekend!!!!
First trip to Texas (go ahead Pat!!! ), Met Ronnie Russell for the first time, picked up a lot of leads on 409 parts (go ahead Pat!!!), I finally threw away the aluminum folding chairs about 3 years ago!!!!!
GREAT memories!!!!!
THAT WAS WHEN I FELL IN LOVE WITH TEXAS!!!!!!!!! ( go ahead Pat).

I was going to ask you how much for those chairs Phil.

 

[Barry Taylor]

I was there racing my 27 roadster. Red light rd. three. There was a swap meet there.

Sorry Phil, I meant "Phil never sold cheap shit"

Phil never sold "shit", cheap or expensive! They were all over priced first class rare parts. Phil knew then that today's outrageous prices are tomorrow's bargains! I only wish that I knew what today's value was going to be of parts that I sold 20+ years ago. Just remember, if you sold it and made a profit, you did well. Those that are "pigs at the trough", eventually get slaughtered!

Damn......Thanks Junky!!!!!
