Nice progress, and pictures! they are quite familiar to me! It's ALL forward progress from where you are right now. I would think sandblasting...
Add me to the "interested" list. LOTS of photos, please.
It'd be a damn sad day if we had reached our horsepower peak 45 years ago. The "gas crisis" of the 70's forced us to figure out how to get a...
More Power. It's a slippery slope. Where does one stop, once they start down it? (I am holding back with all my might. I have plenty of will...
with a weight distribution exceeding 85/15, there wouldn't be any stress on the driveline, just the driver. The spectators would get ALL of the...
Evan, Even if you DO end up missing it, you can quite likely go back and "consult". But is it really more fun than fishing? Or traveling?...
Zig, I hate to be the voice of reason... (because, you know, I have NEVER been the voice of reason before, in my entire life) but it seems to me a...
I can hardly wait! Imagine the hits on the embedded link at the bottom of this thread to the YouTube video- of 2 "old coots" manhandling vintage...
