My ex father in-law passed a little while ago, they did an E auction for his shop tools. He had a nice Bridgeport mill, couple small lathes and countless hand tools. Picked up this saw, couple Milwaukee drills, Bosch jig saw, Mitutoyo dial calipers, 2 new dial indicators and some misc hand tools. He was a machinist by trade but spent the last 20 plus years working for GE setting up mfg facilities around the world. Pretty smart guy.
Thought his sign was pretty cool too.

Last weeks swap finds. Oil pan, carbs and a fuel cell for the 55 and new purple seat for my bike my grandfather gave me in 1969 or 70. ( I’m 61 years old) and another bike/I didn’t need.

Looks like you scored good as well. Those carbs and linkage would look great on my polished BBC tunnel ram. Love the Sting Rays.

Todays score. One set of 062 Vortec heads with 2.02/1.5 valves, screw in studs, Scorpion roller rockers, guides cut down, mildly ported. Along with a Vortec Air Gap RPM intake, a pair of ball milled polished valve covers and the guy threw in a Edelbrock rolling thunder Hyd roller cam, all used for $350. Couldn't pass that deal up.

Picked up a couple of bike projects. The wife is complaining about the bike stable getting bigger all the time.
I'm only at 5 now :rolleyes:
For those who ride...
New seat and Seat post already acquired for the Schwinn Hybrid.
Just got the Fisher Montare yesterday. Vintage rigid MTB with XT components and Bullseye hubs.
