Default If one waits long enough....... !

My first visit to this thread, I had to tell someone!My daughter asked me to go to her "N-laws" residence for years. Seems her Father N Law had a hobby that started in the late 50's, He never built a car of any type, his sole hobby was collecting BB Hi-Preformance motors and trannys- all GM's.

This gentlemen passed away almost a year ago and I told her I would come down and try to help her Mother N Law separate stuff out so she could sell for the proper amounts. (Now keep in mind I had no Idea of what he had collected over the years just that he had motors etc.)

Last week I finally made it to THREE of his garages...I walked into Heaven or a 16 year olds wet dream! Blocks, tranny's, tools, tool boxes, headers, and on and on and on, and on.

What I could get to:
Three 454 4-Bolt main blocks
Three 4-bolt main 427's
Two 4 bolt main 396's
THREE 409'S
Multiple Muncie 4spd's with 31 splines (Rock Crushers?)
One absolute complete 350 (Smog motor) I think this had come out of his mid 70's chevy p/u which has been in storage for close to 30 years! (MINE!)

And the list goes on and on! Going back to load up everything, bring it to my shop in May, do what is necessary for every motor, assemble and start to sell them for the Mother N Law!

Just Wowwwwwwwwwwww!
