Re: Rare parts in unexpected places

I know one of the men that has been heavily involved with that car. He's such an awesome fellow. I met him through another friend that met him at a gas station in Nebraska. Richard was hauling a 426 Hemi in the back of his mini van and saw Troy's load of cars heading to MCACN last November. It can be seen here at the 2:50 mark.

Here is a nice video that shows Richard and his friends and he shows Troy some local cars, describes the intake and how it came to be, and actually showed them the car. At the 25 minute mark you can watch that. At about 29:55 he talks about the car club he was in and how that intake came about. If you like barn finds and rare muscle cars, check out their channel. He's dropping a video today of a 70 Challenger TA they found in Louisiana that was torn apart and setting outside.

We were able to go check out the Kelderman collection a few weeks ago and Richard came up and met us up there. He has some stories and is a wealth of knowledge. We're going to go to his place some time and try and do a podcast with him. He could tell you stories for weeks.
