Remember, I said rare. No offense, but all of the parts you mentioned are pretty run of the mill, and it looks like you paid just about retail for them. I am talking about flathead Cadillac stuff, a finned head for a 356 Packard, that sort of thing. You are right though, and I do keep my eyes open. I scored a flattop Mallory (complete with Voltmaster coil) for an early hemi for a good price just this week. The guy who had it thought it was for a later "B" motor (which are pretty common).
