Thank you both for your kind words.

Over the years I have come to understand talent is usually hard work. There are no wonder pills. There are no secret passwords. There are no magic spells. There are no computer programs that can make you play. No one can do it for you. Only you can succeed.

Life is made up by what you decide to do with your time. Learning a sonata, a nocturne, or a concerto may take months; but, those months will pass regardless. After they pass, where do you want to be? Your life is determined by how hard you are willing to work.

He worked very hard to get his left hand up to speed. The left hand is very difficult in this piece. He worked for months--to put on a 2 minute recital. I am most proud of him.

David

The recital was beautiful. I should post a YouTube

firstly David thanks for posting the you tube, my 6 yr old son said "man how good is he" i tend to agree with him only thing my son can play is the riff to smoke on the water on his guitar You now have me curious about a package deal, how much for the 3 items? just raw steel pipes. i was assuming the shipping was the dash price plus the 400 odd dollars....

I just found more of these. Great Garage Art.

Retail $500.
Today $250.
$195

David, I'm very interested in one of these, but I have some concerns about shipping of such bulky parts. USPS seems to have the most reasonable rates for international delivery, could you please give me a shipping quote for the lower rad opening?

Thanks,

Simon

427 side pipes, ones that join headers inside the body and have 4 pipes into 1. i guess i would call them original type? i wasn't aware you made more than 1 type. My current pipes have just 1 main pipe exiting the body i'm after the 4 into 1 look. Hope that makes sense

Rob.

David,
Your son is very talented and obviously works very hard at developing his skills.

There is nothing quite like a household with music. Only one of my daughters kept up her piano playing, but both of my sons-in-law play guitar and sing and when the family all gets together the piano gets a work out and the guitars come out and it is a wonderful time- especially around the holidays.

Thanks for this great garage sale. I was able to pick up a lot of parts I would never have been able to afford otherwise and I even spread the word so a few of my friends could participate in the generosity.

Hope you and yours have a great Christmas and holiday season.

I'm really curious what your new project is now......


Bob

Simon,

For our European friends, we will simply send the part from Poland. That will be much cheaper for you. No sense wasting money on shipping.

Found another roll of vinyl. There are probably 8 yards on this roll.


This is the vinyl we used on our first cars to cover the rear wheel well panels, the rear bulkhead, and the dash.

56 inches wide

$25

This part is now machined as part of our billet suspension.

We have 20 of these.

16 SOLD. FOUND 10 MORE FOR A TOTAL OF 30

$10

We have 10 left.

S1 stands for a small block car. Also, as there are many parts that are identical between the 289 and 427 Cobra, the S1 could also stand for an original 427 car. The CS stands for Cobra, Shelby.

All of the below bearings are new, in the box. They are all bearings for the differential. We probably have 10 of each bearing or race.

We have sold these on ebay for $200/bearing.
Today, $50 per bearing.

Below are pictures of the different bearings we have. Please specify which part number you want when ordering from among the different bearings.

All bearing boxes look like this:



Here are the part numbers on the boxes.







$50 each
$25 each
