If you're talking about the grey one with small chipped spots on it, I almost bought that hood. I did score two wheel hub assemblies AND a gas tank with the pump in it out of a 17k mile Camaro for 80 bucks.

i walked around in the parts fields for most of the day friday and saturday and didn't see anything.

for several years now the autofair has been the highlight of the spring and fall for me. i love walking around and seeing cool rides and junk that people are trying to sell.

Plenty of vendors willing to sell LS1 parts were there, sorry you missed...

I went with the club and won! Yeah that's right, my hard living daily driver T/A won the Magnus award for my club. It is given in honor of a departed friend who is all about function, not "just pretty stuff". It was the 1st annaul time the award was given, so I was happy to accept on behalf of my tire-spinnin 'bird! Only car stuff I picked up was some tranny output shaft plugs and a Pontiac Service manual for my '88 Formula project.

Here's a link to a pic of my girlfriend's car and mine with trophies on top - Autofair pics
