Wow.... In 1967 I was 17 years old and already a "gear head". I saw a complete 300B engine in Barber Auto Repair shop in Oxnard CA. They wanted $500 for it. I dreamed about that engine!
I worked all summer to save up money. I went to Mr. Barber and told him I'd give him $100 for it. He smiled at me and said "Well I can't eat it, so It's yours".
The engine was perfect and complete down to the Bat Wing air filter.
I was drafted into the Army and I sold it before I went to "Nam in 1970
One of the original NASCAR "BRUISERS".

Watching Dave OWN that track in a stock mid-50s Chrysler 300 letter car was one of the best things I've ever seen on YouTube.
