Let's all go junkin' !!!

[nuch_ss396]

For all of us trying to restore our beloved cars back to
the way they came ( from the factory ), we are now being
hit with another whole round of insanity - HARDWARE !

Take a look at these few items I have been following on
ePay:


This little intake manifold stud cost $127.28



This original upper alternator adjusting bolt setup cost $212.49



This prize of valve cover bolts cost $406.00


These Muncie transmission mounting bolts cost $127.50


Now, conversly, these little gems didn't seem so bad:

Transmission to crossmember mounting hardware for $41.95


Transmission mount to tail shaft mounting hardware for $36.95


And lastly, how about an original SHP throttle arm for $225.00


Who said that the little things in life didn't matter !

I may have to consider spending Saturdays in local junkyards
looking for these original hardware pieces. The $$ being spent
here border on the insane. One of the few remaining things
I needed to get for my restoration were original hardware.
I put those off because the cost wasn't that big of an issue - THEN.
Wish I had jumped the gun on this one......
