The valve covers came off of the Hurst Hairy Olds and the intake is off of the rear engine of the same car. The timing cover is from the Terrifying Toronado.
I was hoping that someone else had seen parts like these.

----I believe Bob Riggle built the Hurst Hairy Olds, so you might try and contact him. If he didn't he still would have info about the car and the Sharp equipment. His # has changed from the one I had or I would PM it to you......Bill S

I have talked to Bob many years ago and he had a small part in building Hairy and being on the crew. He was called to pilot the Hemi Under Glass after the first driver was dismissed. I have reproduced the timing cover and valve covers a few years ago. I know of 2 sets of original valve covers and about 8 intakes and the one timing cover. I just wanted to see if anyone else had seen these pieces before.
