Noon to 3 pm, Saturday and Sunday, March 20/21.
3994 South 300 West, Unit 59.

Here's a few of the items that will be available.

The Rolling Red Dumpster:  A 1985 Ford Econoline 350 cargo van.
I used it about half a dozen times a  summer as a support vehicle for
the IVR events I did.  Rough and rusty, currently has a problem with
the starter.  And no heater, but the AC works.  Like I said, I only drove
it in the summer.  Buy this beast for $666  Big block 460, auto trans,
11,000 pound towing capacity.  Gets 7.256 mpg fully loaded and hauling
a trailer.  Gets 7.265 mpg empty.

Craftsman gas powered air compressor.  I failed to drain the gas out of
it before winter.  Carb needs cleaning, no doubt, I haven't tried to start
it in some time.  But it worked great back when it was working.  $150.

Still have a couple of those $15 dollar fire extinguishers.

Like new Panosonic microwave.  I used it maybe 3 times to make
popcorn down at the shop.  $50.

Oil filled electric radiator, works great.  $20

Set of 4 13 x 6 aluminum wheels. 185/60-13 Yokohama A-509
tires.  4 on 4.5 inch bolt pattern, too bad they don't fit Spitfires.
$50 for the set.

Window mount air conditioner.  Bruised and battered, but it worked
last summer.  $25

New in the box Weber 40 DCOE carb.  $300

There's an electric stove down there I was going to use as a curing oven
for powder coating.  I'd like to keep it, but don't really have room for
it just yet.  It may also be for sale, like the little bead blast 
cabinet and
the parts washer.  Nice to have, but where will I put them?


 And off in a storage unit I have:

Spitfire Mark 3 bonnet - $75

Spitfire 1500 bonnet - $50



At home I have a Spitfire 1500 parts carcass.  I need the trunk lid with
the luggage rack, you can have the rest if you haul it away.  I might even
let you borrow my trailer to do so.
