Anyone else, besides me, prefer not to receive an email every time David has something to sell? And then, another email when it is no longer for sale (gasp). I find it tedious and intrusive, and not a good use of the forum.

“Hey, I need an obscure part for my E”: Just fine for mass distribution (until our forum works like other bulletin boards, and not everyone sees everything anybody sends).

Hey, I have an obscure part to sell for ’61-‘64s”: Not ok. This belongs in a classified section somewhere else, like on a website.

Thank you,

Narrowing the focus might not be a good idea. I far too late one day realized

I had done just that at a swap meet. There have been times in the past when

attending swap meets I have noticed something that was at a very reasonable

$$ for what it was. I have on a few occasions plunked down $$ to buy something

that I knew I wanted to re-sell to earn more $$ for my restoration efforts on a 300.

I had spied a complete forced air induction system that came off a Mr. Norm's

modified and sold as new Dodge 340. On the open market that had a serious price tag.

The swap meet I was at, it was just a pile of parts on the floor. The asking $$ was very

very affordable. But NO!, I was chasing 300 stuff and walked on by.

As I recall, I didn't find anything at that particular swap to add to the pile of parts

in the garage for the 300. BUT had I sprung for the Mr. Norms 'pile of parts' I sure

could have thought about raising the bar on my search tactics.

Paul Holmgren 2 57 300-C's in Indy Hoosier Corps #L6 CPUs run on smoke. I know this because when the smoke comes out, it stops working.

Moral, it might not have tickled my fancy that day, but someone sure got a deal.
