BEN SNOBAR 2 day Estate AUCTION

[fc7cuda]

Do I see a max wedge manifold in that pic above?

If anyone has any specific questions on stuff please feel free to ask.

Tom,

Did Ben have a collection of rims, other than what might be on cars and have you had time to go through them yet.

Thanks
Tom

He has one bay of one of the shops lined front to back with wheels and tires.  He built some very clever shelves for them, have not had a chance to go through them yet.  Bay is 4 cars deep, 3 wide.

[rocketresto]

Three sets of Hemi exhaust manifolds and one set of max wedge.

@fc7cuda  It's going to be hectic I'm sure on the day of the auction, but remind me to look and I will be sure to go through all the wheels for you.  If there's one there I'll let you know and you can tell me what you want to pay.  I'll bid and buy it for you then ship it to you.

Really nice Challenger grill.

Went to the automotive auction that James G. Murphy did in Brothers, OR awhile back, those folks know what they are doing and it was VERY well run.  They move along quickly, too.

[Cuda Cody]

@cudajunction  that's good to know.  Thanks for sharing that.  With the mass amount of parts Ben had it's going to have to move quickly to get it done in 2 days.

I have to ask.  Would there happen to be any NOS M46 barracuda scoops?  Or red interior parts for cuda or challenger?

Haven't seen any M46 scoops yet but will post on here if we find some.  Tons and tons of E-Body interior bits but don't think I've seen red yet.  Again will post on here if so.

How many nice sets of bezels

[cuda hunter]

Thank you sir.  I will be checking in.

Of course very sad, unfortunate situation  , but it's great to see all these parts coming back into circulation after many years of hoarding....

All across North America there are probably hundreds of collections of cars and parts just like this, just sitting around collecting dust with guys that have the most sincere intentions, but never have enough time in a lifetime to put them to good use. 

It's sad that it takes one's death to share the wealth

It's also ironic to think most of this stuff is likely to be bought up by family and friends of Ben, only to stick it in the dusty corner of their shop in honour or tribute to Ben Snobar...

Are there any pictures of the 1953 Studebaker? 

[RUNCHARGER]

Good point Alan. I also think it will be good if some of the stuff gets out there and gets put to use.
