Atleast he takes pride...

I've seen many beaters guys put up for sale on eBay. At least this guy takes pride in the engines he's selling. I'm not advocating this guy, but it's just nice to see someone who's cleaned up the several engines he has up. Now, they may be frozen and corroded as all hell on the inside, but they look nice on the outside.

The Admiring Mark

Just a guess Mark, some of his Bees look like they may have been dipped
in something strong enough to strip some of the cylinder bluing.
Jury's out on the insides, pretty though.

$50 for his Cox-a-matic cams? Someone should repro those.

The crimp on the backplate screen looks to have a portion missing from corrosion and there is another area that appears to be polished out. They might be nice display engines, but I would prefer to see one opened up.
