Show Us Your Hershey Hauls!
Here's a pic of the parts I was able to score at Hershey this year. I pretty much struck out on finding parts for the 1912 Flanders, but I did find a few things of interest, see the attached pic. I haven't had time yet to disassemble or clean anything, it's just sitting on the bench waiting while I catch up on other things.

No, I paid $10.00 for this one in the Green field on Monday. He had another one that was pretty rusty, maybe that one was $5.00, I didn't look that closely.

Re: Show Us Your Hershey Hauls!
This was my year for Bosch front plate distributor finds, I guess. I bought a nearly complete unit, minus the distributor cap and cam gear, for $50. It has some wear and tear, but very restorable. Also, bought 2 Bosch front plates only, (no distributors), for $50 each. Other than that, just a few little tools and small T parts that I didn't need but felt compelled to buy at $1 each.

Re: Show Us Your Hershey Hauls!
With one day being rained out I never made it to the fields across the bridge, but I did find a few things.
Scissors that aren't half plastic like all the ones in stores; half a dozen snap clips; thirty valve stem nuts; a working drill; #6154 carb elbow (brass); two petcocks; valve stem cover; circa 1922 Champion X plug; seven Dremel-size carbide cutters.
Why so many valve stem nuts? They were priced at 50¢ each or 15 for $1. About half are Model T size and the others are for 724/725 stems.
I overpaid $4 for the plug. The elbow, petcocks, and drill were all $1 each. The valve stem cover was free. I held it up and the guy said, "Just take it."
