What a weekend! I sold over 2k in parts and bought a very rare set of Batten W2 aluminum heads and a four bolt main 340 block.

On Friday we went to Picture car warehouse. There was only 10 or so cars. Then we ventured off to Bobs Big Boy on Corbin and it was pretty decent. After that we hit Bob's in Toluca Lake and it was happening. I put about 200 miles on my Bee and I think I broke a valve spring on a speed shift somewhere along the line. All in all a great night.

Was that the 340 4 bolt that the bolt holes leaked into a water jacket. IIRC, the seller said if it for a race car and 1/2 filled, it wouldn't be an issue. Made sense to me....But I thought he'd never find a buyer for it.

That guy from Bay area? has had those Batten heads since Fall Fling. He was pretty high on the price. Did you get him to come down some.

My dad was at Picture Car Warehouse at 6:00 pm and I thought he said there were 40 Mopars and about 100-150 people there. ?? Did you come at a different time? Maybe my dad's numbers were off or I'm not remembering right.

What time did you get over to Bob's in Burbank? With the nice weather I bet that place was stuffed from 4:00 pm to 11:00 pm. And the amazing thing is the cars turnover so much there. On a day like that, about every 2 hours there's an entire new set of cars!

I commend you for your ambitious Friday night three cruise/event schedule. That's die hard!

I recommended it to a few people and they were afraid it was too much for them.
