Got The call

Last night around 8:30 CST I was sitting at the kitchen table eating some ice cream and watching the 2001 SuperNationals Video when the phone rang. A guy identified himself and told me I had won the front end that was being raffled at the Nationals the prior weekend. So I now have a complete front end for my 55'. Boy was I pumped. Now a few of the parts I won't be able to use like the air deflectors and that nice chrome grille. I will likely end up trading or selling them. Maybe selling the grille, front hood latch panel, and air deflectors will get me enough money to buy one of the new Metal Hoods. Just thought I would share my good fortune.

Congrats. Now what year are those air defectors for? If they are for a 56 and steel I am interested.

Very cool deal. Congrats! I still got the raffle tickets for that 351 macho crate motor your could win.

Dropped of my latest group of tics from FTE members and odds are looking good.
