Santa Ana winds caused some damage (same ones that were responsible for spreading the recent fires)...

And you never know what will show up in front of Aero Trader's hangar:
Can anyone identify these? Some kind of boat motor?

I know someplace those Packards could be put to good use. What are the plans for them ?

If you were thinking they could be put to use in my Volkswagen, you are dead on. Actually... I have a 1968 Ford full sized truck that would go really fast with that engine....

I may have a few cases of spark plugs for those engines.
Who might be the owner?

The PT boat Packards are waiting on a little cash flow to move them toward N. Calif in near future...They came from Colorado, were used in a power plant to run generators..
