Recently I can across a old Chevy engine (Cir. 1915) it just feels a waist to scrap them. I just wanted to find out if someone needed them before I scrapped them (Im not really a car guy) https://photos.app.goo.gl/QgTh9dqu7Cvsp4VZ9 This is link to the photos. Let me know if it works. My phone 231-392-9494 Calls only between 6:30 PM and 8:30 PM and Sundays. Any other time its only iffy if I answer but you can leave a message and I will get back to yea. I know it’s a tight window, but I always work Craig W. Schwabe Traverse City, MI 49686 Attached Images VCCA Member Services Manager http://vcca.org memberservices@vcca.org 708-455-8222
