Bad rotor? Junkyard Heaven!!!!!

WARNING!: Clicking on the following link may cause severe heart damage! WTF - there must be a dozen or more sunken treasures. Where is this place? First one to locate it and make contact must PM me out of respect so I can be the first to buy my international plane ticket and buy some large empty suitcases to take with me.

Don't say I didn't warn ya'.... you have one last chance..

That dont count since its not a rotary.

Look close and youll see a Hemi-style valve cover poking out, with the #1 plug wire.


There is a guy in AZ or New Mexico with a similar junkyard collection of oldschools.....I'm sure Wacky knows who he is.
