  1. How about these? Haven't seen any posted (yet).

    Eddie Meyer 8BA, still with mud and grass from the swap meet.

    Does this thread display properly for anyone? I can only seem to see the last post, and mine. Gonna refresh my browser. I've got some neat Evans heads I want to add and some questions about running old heads.

    Yeah, I have a early and late set of those. I think they are pretty cool and mine are originals without the grass. Not wanting to sell but how much do you guys think they are worth?

    How rare are these? I've seen the copper one's on the McGee roadster buy never one's with aluminum tops.

    I've only in person seen 2 sets. I have met 2 different people who tell me that have a set, but these are only ones I can personally verify.
    These were made in 1936. In 1937 Ford went to water pumps in the block. That made these obsolete.
    I've owned them over 40 years.

    That bronze against aluminum must be a corrosion nightmare.
     
  12. Is there a moderator who can fix the first missing 8 pages on this 9 page thread ?

    I just picked these Smith's IMG-2304.jpg up. I've always wanted a set.
