A few more.....

Hi all, as I go through my late fathers collection, I have found a few items I'm looking for some help identifying. I have now found a total of 3 sets of the 81A-6050-B high compression heads, 2 sets are NOS in the box. The other heads I'm not so sure about. Also, curious if the KR Wilson...

A few hours, I'm in Duluth.

The problem with that is not knowing where to start at a valuation. I like doing no reserve auctions because it is the true test of what a car is worth, not what I hope or think it's worth. Northern Minnesota.
