It is starting

[memike]

For real?? That's cool. Oh, and hello to you.

Not for real I always think of my time with him and running booze and deer meat to friends up and down Black river, he was a dodge man and had a few fast old Doges, he had a very cool old 39 dodge ( 9-11 ) he put a big block in back in the 70'es , A fun fellow for sure

Well, shucks. Black river, whereabouts is that?

 

[memike]

North of Jonesboro Arkansas 40 miles, but if you look up Black River in Corning Arkansas you will see it goes threw it, many great memories with a bunch of river rats back in the day.

From the look's of those parts Cindy , I'm guessing his 426 ?

So correct, 426 with 440 big valve heads, intake, purple shaft

[bear]

It's about time!

Your telling me ? My right foot is getting "real" itchy for the feel of a big block again .

Bob took time off from all his projects, and we put just over 300 miles on the old panel, found this cool old stove, half wood burning! O also when we came out of the casino there was two guys checking the under side of our panel, pretty weird, but it didn't seem to bother o easy going Bob.

Yes very different, porcelain was in perfect shape and very clean in and out! Sounds like Bob might go back up there and buy it!

I am thinking $450.00 was the price, how close am I Cindy ?

The price was $250.00 that is why I think we will go back and get it.

That stove would bring $500.00 at most places here in Arkansas to most collectors
Great find for sure

 

[memike]

Just a couple pictures of my old cast iron I have and enjoy using

Very cool, we do thrift stores daily and drive at least once a week north to Seattle, Tacoma, Olympia from here in Vancouver Wa. and search for goodies, but people are catching on and the prices are going up, so we hit barn sales and find cool stuff

My wife and I of 35 years do the same, just weekends, we hit auctions and estate sales also, I agree, folks are finding out what goods sell for and the internet has drove some prices up. we enjoy doing this most every weekend here in northeast Arkansas

Congrats on the 35 years, don't hardly see that anymore. We love barn sales and the last time we drove back to Mt Victory Ky we took exits of the interstate and cruised as many side roads and frontage roads that we could. Craigslist works also
