Funny!! I loved the space-saver spare tire!! Maybe they should be permanently installed and come down like an airplane landing gear. :lol:

Re: One More Chance

This motor is ready to go, carb to pan, less headers and water pump. Dyno numbers are 441 hp @5700 rpms and 445 Ft-Lb of torque at 3200 rpms. Something to start a project with. You can't win it if you don't have a ticket. Anyone want to buy a ticket for me? Just pm an address and I send $10 if I do...

I made a lawn roller from a galvanized water tank 30 years ago and wondered if the fumes had a role in some weird health issues. This time I should have ke...
