I'd like to check it out since it's somewhat local for me.
$80 admission and $150 bidder registration fee will keep riff-raff like myself away.

an intake, carb, valve covers, and air cleaner for my 60 merc wagon with a 430 :coolman:
I tried to get a super marauder (3 deuce setup) but it went for $3300 :dw: and the respective lincoln part $6000

 

[ShelbyGuy]

so you're the third guy into MEL stuff!

is the super marauder tripower backwards like the tbird unit, or is it the same as the 406?

big mercs make me all squishy inside. so do wagons. waycool!

not sure, they are so rare that I've never had a chance to see one....pretty slick looking setup! I wish they showed it without the breather mounted also....here is the photo from the auction:

I basically got screwed out of another auction, which is total :bs:

I won a sand casting mold for the aluminum valve covers shown above, then I got a message saying "the auctioneer did not understand your request" and they went to a floor bidder for $50 less than my bid of $400 :fm:

In their terms, it says they have the right to decline an internet bidder's bid, and give it to a floor bidder :mj:
