Default true barn find

hi guys,
i met a fellow last sunday at a car show in northampton co pa. vettes for vets. I pulled in to park in general admisson, i wasn't entered in the car show. And the first car i see on my way to the cars is a 1960's era indy car.The fellow who owns it, saw me pull in and flags me down, and tells me, he has an orignal set of hallibrand wheels for an an ac cobra. I say ok and take his phone number. Don't think much of it.
A few days latter, i find the phone number in my pocket, and realize it's a local number. Today friday 6/18/10 I decide to give the guy a call, and if nothing else take a ride in the cobra. He answers his phone and says come on down. He shows me the wheels, there are two 16x9.5 and two 16x8.5, I don't even know if these would be orignal equipment to an 427 S/C. That's not the point. He takes through the barns, and I'm climbing over 60' era sprint and indy cars, and horse drawn carriages and a bunch of other stuff from that era. Just like that tv program pickers. Any buddy interested give me a call, I'll pass on his # to you.
