one of the most amazing promotional displays ever put on a car, the 1970 Rapid Transit System Road Runner






I know I posted about this years ago, but this is the first time I've seen it in person

I have never even heard of this before... the Barris Barracuda Spoiler kit, on a 68 Formula S. I of 8 built, 1 of 4 surviving







a couple nice AMXs, the bronze one is full race

 







the oil filter is on this mounting plate, with this interesting sticker on it


Fletcher Aviation was a sponsor of a Porsche in the 1954 Carrera Panamericana  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fletcher_Aviation


and Frank Fletcher, one of the 3 Fletcher Aviation brothers, designed executive desks, and had them built at Fletcher Aviation




that is one boring dash, very very flat

I've never seen these before, and this seller had a good set of them to sell, but they didn't have the tools in them. He said he had a bunch more at home he hasn't had time to do anything with, and those are full sets with the tools.

Looks like they went through a flood 




good stuff found in the swap meet

Never seen one of these before
 
I was tempted to buy this.... but, resisted. It would only gather dust. 
Pretty cool that Moto Meter made a tire pressure gauge

Real factory high perf 426 stage II or stage III max wedge iron exhaust manifolds that were as good as headers, seller wants 2k


here's what they look like on a 426 stage II

Real Chrysler under dash air conditioning

NOS 1963 tires

1970 or 71 Chrysler 440 six pack intake, Iron. Mopar didn't want to keep paying Edelbrock for the aluminum ones


I can't remember if these are cassette or 8 track, But I did see one in a GTX at the San Marino Classic https://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2015/06/plum-crazy-hemi-beast.html 

413 long runner intakes... I saw 4 pair of them for sale, from 800 to 1200


NOS Mopar mufflers


real original tires, and spare
