Daytona Turkey Run Swap Meet

It started here on Friday. When they opened the gates to the Daytona International Speedway parts hunters burst into the Daytona Turkey Run Swap Meet area link ants swarming an ant hill. I never saw so many motorized carts carrying away fenders, doors and miscellaneous parts fit to finish a project. This was one of the finest swap meets we’ve seen.

Gordon's Engines — Gordon’s Engines & Machine Shop from Sherman, Texas showed performance roller motors ready to drop into your street rod.

454 big block engine — My favorite was this 454/450 hp motor with CFM 750 Quick Fuel 750 cfm carb, Keith Black domed pistons and Performer RPM intake. Listed for $5,360. They were selling a lot of 383 stroker motors.

Heidts ifs — Two different styles of Heidt’s Independent Front Suspension pieces from Little Joe’s Rod Shop.

father and son — A grandfather and his grandson check out a ready formed altered front nose at a pre-fabricated body parts display.

old school intakes — One swap vendor had a huge selection of old school hot rod intakes and carburetor setups.

great sounding exhaust — At the Pypes Performance Exhaust display we spotted this hipo exhaust system. Would really like to hear how this one sounds.

Mosler 9 rear end — We found a both that not only had Moser 9-inch rear ends but also had the nodular 9-inch case s;lit so you could see how the s;lines look.
