Very exciting and, extremely sad at the same time. I hate to see them going out of business. Nice folks whenever I dealt with them.

Wow, what a deal. I wonder what else they have listed to sell cheap or did Chuck buy the rest?

I feel the same here, Jimmy. Sorry to see them go out of business but if Chuck bought their stock it is still there for us.

Wish I had a 1000 bucks and the time to drive up there. They would probably all be gone before I got there. Story of my life I guess.

I would love to have one, I would

just have it on a stand in my cave. I would dream about what I would add to it to make it a motor.

I wish I had known about the NOS 215 blocks back when I rebuilt the engine in my 53 sedan. Stock bore NOS pistons are easy to find at good prices since noone ever used them when new. Oversize pistons for a 215 are $$$ (I found an NOS oversize piston set myself for 1/2 $$$ because I am cheap and willing to wait for a good price).

I got a kick out of this statement in the ad in ALL CAPS: "WE HAVE NO FLATHEAD BLOCKS, AND NO 272, 292 0R 312 V-8'S. ONLY THE BLOCKS LISTED ABOVE" I bet they still get a couple hundred calls asking for flathead blocks.
