Way back in the 70s at one of the last Harrah's Reno meets, two guys from Texas or OK had this Uhaul trailer full of NOS GM parts in boxes. Several guys pitched in and lifted the trailer pouring out all these NOS parts into a huge pile, everyone dove in. I came out with a Chevy assy. folding trunk guard kit in the box for $15. Just a few years back a guy at Turlock Swap had all this NOS 55-6-7 stuff, but in the middle of his display I spotted this NOS 1930 locking door handle with keys, only $5. Last one; had a small pile of Chev items at Pleasanton swap meet for sale, guy comes up, looks over my collection of 235 parts and says, "I got one of them Corvette dual manifolds out in the truck, want it?" He came back about an hour later with the manifold, cost me $100, didn't have to leave my lawn chair. Some days are diamonds some days are stones.
