Default Sharp Oldsmobile Items

A few Oldsmobile engine parts that I had made. The center timing cover is the original and I'm pretty sure it came off of the Terrifying Toronado.

Sharp valve covers are rare. He was known for his flathead products more than anything else.
Can you post a pic of them please?

Ryan, Ryan, Ryan.......you must educate thyself on the Rocket history, Grasshopper. There were two two-engined Toros. Grant Piston Rings owner built one for street use. I missed buying it by about 35,000 feet. I'll explain: I was reading Hemmings Motor News while flying somewhere (a vacation a few years ago) and spotted it for sale in the &quot;Multi-Makes&quot; section. As soon as we landed I called and literally missed it by hours. My wife sensed my excitement when I found the ad, and knew how disappointed I was when I made the call. I'm pretty sure it was in Viginia when advertised and when sold, it went to Germany.
The &quot;Terrifying&quot; car was raced for a very short time as it was extremely unpredictable and dangerous. There are pics of it hopping over a guardrail at a drag strip back early in it's short life. I'm pretty sure it was dismantled.

Are you having these parts produced for personal use or resale? The quality (judging from the pictures) is impressive! Neat stuff!!!
